Pam’s Salad – Choose the bowl size depending on how many people you are serving!
Fill a bowl half way with Mesclun mixed greens, Green Buttercrunch head lettuce and/or Red Buttercrunch lettuce.
Chop and add any fresh vegetable(s) and /or strawberries or apple to fill another third of bowl.
Add some olive oil and toss to coat all items lightly.
Add balsamic vinegar and toss to mix.
Crumble some feta cheese on top (fat-free works just as well).
Grind fresh pepper on top.
Add walnut pieces (unsalted and unroasted).
Throw in a few dried/sweetened cranberries.
YUM!
Thanks,
Pamela J. Mitchell
Easy Borsht -from Amanda Ballenger
Boil beet in water until soft, you may add carrot and potato if so desired
Puree when cooled until smooth, if you wish for some bites of beet remove a few pieces and set a side
Dice a cold cucumber, sweet onion or scallion, add to puree
Chop dill or any other yummy herbs that appeal to you
Good salt and ground pepper
Refrigerate and let cool completely.
Add a dollop of yogurt or sour cream on top of serving
Enjoy this easy yummy cold summer soup
