I was struggling to pull together my salad, debating almonds versus walnuts, orange or lemon juice, cheddar or blue...Everything seemed to work once I decided to challenge myself to make a salad using only ingredients found in my fridge and pantry
One of the things I love about summer is that I can eat like a Queen without much effort. Mid July, our crisper is now overflowing with farmer’s market vegetables, none of which need much fuss or strategic planning in
This salad highlights many fresh flavours of the Mediterranean and is at its best when made with good-quality olive oil. To pit several olives at once, place them on a cutting board and lightly crush with the bottom of a small saucepan to expose pits before removing. Stir this salad lightly with a fork before serving to loosen the pasta.
This easy Black Bean Salad recipe is what I use when I have to take a dish to an event because it is so quick to make and everyone comes back for seconds.
