Summer Salad

7.28.2007

We're having dinner on our deck tonight and, while I was cooking, I thought I'd share our salad idea with you.

Since we have so many different preferences for salads around here, one day I decided to get down a pretty platter, slice some bib lettuce for the center, and surround it with all of our favorite toppings. Ours includes radishes, queen olives, carrots, cucumbers, blueberries, cherry tomatoes, shaved Parmesan cheese and banana peppers.

Top with your favorite salad dressing and everyone has their own special salad. Plus it's pretty and colorful to boot. Enjoy!

It looks beautiful! I love salads with spinach and fruit in them. In fact, I ate one tonight! I made some strawberry viniagrette dressing to go on top and it was oh so yummy!

Tammy :

I love this idea...kind of a salad bar. And this photo makes me want to dive right it! :)

I've really been into salads all summer. Love 'em. My favorite right now is one made with mixed greens, carrots, craisins, sunflower seeds, feta cheese, mandarin oranges and Ken's Greek dressing. Oh my!

Hope you're enjoying your weekend.

Hugs!

That's a great idea. Everyone here likes different things in their salad as well. It is so refreshing to eat...and perfect for these warm summer days/nights. Thanks for sharing.

I was sad that you couldn't meet us for breakfast...I'll be back in the Spring for a teacher's convention, perhaps then???
