• I realized last night that those plastic tomato bins are great for draining and rinsing canned beans, before you toss them in the recycling. (Toss the bins, not the beans, obviously.)

Monster Salad

Newer Older

I'm not usually much of a green salad person, but last night I felt the urge for leafy goodness. Here, about five huge leaves of romaine torn up, with carrot, grape tomatoes, homegrown alfalfa sprouts, half an avocado, chickpeas, and some of Mo Kelly's Salad Dressing from The Garden of Vegan. First time I'd tried the dressing; it was really quite good.

    Looks like what I eat twice a day, every day for five more weeks.:)

    What's in the salad dressing?

  2. moria 87 months ago | reply

    Olive and flax oils, balsamic vinegar, Braggs, garlic, mustard, basil, parsley, salt, and pepper. Basically, just a vinaigrette with soy sauce, but if I don't follow a recipe at least loosely, I tend to just splash vinegar and olive oil on the greens and leave it at that.

    Splashing is usually my method, too.

    Good idea, KBlood. Thanks for the reminder!

    Looks very tasty.

    I used your photo in a small article about food for the skin:

    Good luck with Flickr!

    Tack så mycket, Hans! What good timing, too -- I'm going to Stockholm in a couple of months, and really need to practice what little Swedish I know. I look forward to figuring out what your article says! :D

    Hi, I borrowed your pic for my blog--it is gorgeous and looks just like one of my habitual lunch salads.
