There's no denying it - summer's a comin'! Already there are signs: temperatures are rising, the sun is out later and later each evening, and bikinis and sun dresses fill shop windows. For many, including myself, the change of season comes with a corresponding shift in appetite. In the winter it's hearty stews and rich pastas that I crave, but come summer, it's the fresh salads, grilled chicken, and juicy watermelon that make my mouth water.
Here is my favorite entrée salad recipe - it makes for the perfect summer lunch or light dinner:
Summer Salad
*A few handfuls of Organic Spring Salad mix
*1/2-3/4 cup of dark red kidney beans
*Handful of grated carrots
*Low-fat feta cheese (I use Trader Joe's brand)
*Newman's Own Light Honey Mustard Dressing
This recipe is incredibly adaptable and can be altered to suite a wide range of taste buds and cravings. I often I'll add olives or other in season veggies. This particular combination is really delicious and filling - definitely worth a try!
