Summer Everything Salad

Summer Everything Salad

Flowers contain a huge amount of power packed energy, don’t be afraid to add them to your salads.  They also look fantastic & add a wonderful array of colour.

My favorites are violas, and calendula petals.  Borage flowers have a wonderful cucumber taste & are perfect for salads but are also great in drinks, and candied for deserts.  

Mixed bag of mesclun salad mix
Other lettuce leaves, shredded
Anything that grows in your garden!
Baby spinach leaves
Beetroot tops
Rocket
Flower petals
Red Onion, thinly sliced half moons
Spring onion
Cheery tomatoes
Feta cheese
Grated Parmesan Cheese or half a bag of dried parmesan
Olives
Sundried tomatoes
Capers  

Roasted Salad Nuts & Seeds
These can be added raw or roasted which I prefer!  Sky’s the limit so try your own combinations.  

Hazelnuts
Almonds
Brazil nuts, chopped
Peanuts
walnuts
Sunflower seeds
Pumpkin seeds
Sesame seeds
Whatever your heart desires!

Gently heat a heavy based pan & slowly roast the larger nuts & add the smaller nuts as you go until all golden brown.  Don’t over cook or burn them or their lovely oils will be destroyed & the flavour will be ruined.
