Summer Salad

I love seasonal eating, and it's never easier than in the summer. It also helps when you have neighbors who are going away for a couple of weeks and need to clean your fridge...the combination can be quite tasty.

Mediterranean inspired salad:

-lettuce from the garden
-cherry tomatoes from the garden/farmers' market
-cukes (from the store, but the garden ones are coming along nicely!)
-olives & some amazing turkish farmer's cheese from the neighbors

Chop it all up and add a dressing made from balsamic vinegar, lemon juice, olive oil & a dash of salt & pepper.

It also helps when your fellow potluckers make a delicious meal that suits your salad perfectly.

A delicious cilantro infused slaw, savory bread pudding & roasted chicken. We had the requisite ice cream for dessert. Yum and Yum.
