Spring Salad
Fresh salad is one of my favorite foods. You don’t need pre-made or bottled dressing. Just a good olive oil and some balsamic vinegar and you are set.
Spring Salad
4 c. Spring mix greens
6 asparagus spears
4 oz. sugar snap pea pods
1 carrot- shredded finely
3 broccoli stems, shredded finely
1/2 c. diced sweet onion
fresh parsley, chopped
olive oil
balsamic vinegar
salt and fresh ground pepper
4 oz. feta cheese crumbles
Wash and spin dry greens and place in salad bowl. Trim tough ends off asparagus and steam 4 minutes. Place in cold water to stop cooking and cut into 1-inch pieces. Add to greens. Add remaining vegetables to salad bowl. Drizzle with oil- not too much- and then toss. Add salt and pepper to taste and drizzle with balsamic vinegar. Serve in individual bowls and add cheese to taste. Serves 3-4.
