A Simple Salad with Fascinating Greens !

Hi-Ya !!







Salads are a staple in the Summer months, but Oh how I love to enjoy a nice Fall salad. There are so many "Fall-type" ingredients that you can add to jazz up your salad and still reap the healthy benefits. You can choose from the wide world of squashes, pomegranate, pears, beets, and cranberries.
Create your FALL salad today !!

What's in my salad bowl you ask?!?!  Check it out....
  • Yellow cherry tomatoes
  • Red onions
  • Mediterranean goat cheese
  • English cucumber
  • Pomegranate seeds
  • Drizzle of extra virgin olive oil and pomegranate vinegar
  • Herb salad mix from Trader's Joe
** The Sharing of my taste buds experience** This was my first time getting this bag salad from Trader's Joe and I'm glad I did.  This bag of green goodness contains some basic greens, such as: romaine lettuce, red & green chard,and arugula.  It also includes some greens that (1)  I have not heard of and (2) I would have never thought of adding to a salad.  

The other greens/lettuces that are in this mix are: Oak Leaf lettuce, Lollo Rossa, Tango, Frisee (endive) radicchio, Mizuna, Parsley, Cilantro. and DILL.  Yes, Dill !!! The springs of dill in this salad mix made a HUGE taste difference. It wasn't overpowering, but just right.   I love cooking w/ dill, but you can bet your money dollar that I will be buying some fresh dill to keep handy for my salads.

If you shop at TJ's then I highly recommend you trying it out. The cost was only $2.49 a bag and its organic...can't beat that, right ?!?!?
