SIMPLE SUMMER SALADS. Are what I’m living for right now. Do you notice your food cravings change throughout the seasons? With the hot summer weather I constantly crave fresh & easy salads. I’m not joking when I say I eat salads for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. You gotta take advantage of the abundance of local veg at the markets right now, amirite?! And what better way to do that than with salad for every meal. Here’s an easy one for you to try!
ROASTED BEET & CREAMY DILL SALAD:
- Roasted beets - chopped, tossed in olive oil, salt & pepper, roasted (covered) @425 for 30 min. Remove from the oven, stir in fresh chopped garlic clove, and place back (uncovered) for another 10 minutes.
