Summer is about taking it slow, but schedules still get busy and if that's going to happen, dinner needs to be quick and easy at least some of the time. Get a fantastic summer salad that fits the bill and is healthy and enough to make your mouth water.
Every once in a while, I share lunch with readers. And by that, I mean I let folks know what I had on a particular day, not that you should be expecting a delivery at any moment. That said, this one's simple enough that you might want to take a few minutes to make it for yourself!
Many think of the hottest part of summer as ideal salad days, but I also think the beginning of the end of winter is also great for salad. And I'm not talking about any old salad; I'm contemplating spicy-sweet flavors with as many textures as your heart desires. It's time to start thinking spring!
Warming up doesn't always mean a steaming bowl of soup. Sometimes, an inspired salad can turn up the heat as well or better. And when that same meal is packed with great vegetables, an amazing dressing, and sweet, spicy chicken, there's every reason in the book to love it.
