Method
This is a very versatile salad. Adding either fruit OR tomato plus nuts or seeds makes it not only super delicious, but full of healthy polyphenols!.
- The base is fresh and tender spring greens, such as arugula, baby spinach, bibb lettuce, etc. and slightly salted
- Add sliced fruit you have on hand such as berries, pomegranates, apples, oranges, etc OR cherry or sun-dried tomatoes.
- Top with any nuts or seeds you have on hand--I prefer them toasted: walnuts, almonds, pinenuts, peanuts, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, etc.
- Dressing base: 1 part balsamic vinegar to 3 parts EVOO--and can be enhanced by adding a little dijon mustard and Greek honey. I prepare a jar and keep on hand to dress as necessary.
Eat immediately after salting and dressing as it wilts fast! And ENJOY!!
