Raw fruits and vegetables are rich in nutrients, fiber and beneficial anti-oxidants aka they're good for you. Salads are one of the easiest ways to serve raw foods. We eat a lot of salads because every meal should include raw foods. The brighter and deeper the colour of raw fruits and vegetables the better they are for you so I like using salad blends with a lot of colour and then add more colour.
Raspberries are always expensive because they are a very delicate fruit that is difficult to ship and spoils quickly. I paid $3.97 for a pint of raspberries used for this meal. About half were used for the salad. In season I pay $2.25 per pint from the raspberry U-pick. This year I have finally decided it is time to invest in my own raspberry canes. They should grow nicely here [if we decide not to move] even in partial shade giving me several locations [and at the new house if we move] where I can plant them. Each cane will cost about $8 and give a yield of 4 to 6 pints in the second season.
