United Supermarkets’ Fresh Ideas for Locally Grown Fruits & Veggies

It's no secret that locally grown fruits and veggies often taste better, and the popular summer produce is in season right now — tomatoes, peaches, watermelon, cantaloupe, blueberries, just to name a few.

When you're shopping at United Supermarkets, be sure to look for the "Made in Texas" tags to ensure you're getting those local goodies. United Supermarkets Corporate Dietician Brenda Garcia was just in the studio telling us about some recipes they shared online for summer favorites:

• Grilled Steak & Corn Salad
• Tomato Salad With Gorgonzola & Bacon
• Mexican Stuffed Poblano Peppers
• Grilled Rosemary Shrimp and Tomato Skewers
• Grilled Zucchini With Goat Cheese, Basil, & Honey

And if you want to bring fruit into dessert: Strawberry Napoleons.
