A Truly Great (BIG) Salad. . .

NOTHING beats a really well made salad!

The first principle to achieving this is - Always begin with the freshest of ingredients.  Today it's baby Romaine, spinach, and bok choy.  Chop, wash and spin these in your salad spinner.  Put a big handful in your individual salad bowl.

Now slice or dice and add:  half an avocado, a medium ripe tomato, a few radishes, 2 pearl onions and tops, a rough peeled pickling cucumber, half a can of pinto beans - rinsed and drained, and a sprinkle of feta cheese crumbles.  Drizzle with a hearty oil and vinegar dressing made with extra virgin olive oil and a dark flavorful vinegar.  Today my Red Apple Balsamic won out.  Toss and serve.

I crave these 24/7!  Today it's what's for breakfast! . . . Lin
