Asian Chimichurri Salad
June 10
With restaurants just beginning to open (happy to say Pacific Catch is open) I’m still not ready to venture out, but I want to support my local restaurants. This is one of my favorite salads. We’ve had it several times during the self-quarantine. I’ve listed the ingredients for those of you who want to make your own version.

Belgium Endive Salad
June 9
I call this Belgium Endive Salad because that’s what they call Endives here in the groceries. I don’t think this salad is from Belgium. Wait, I know it’s not because I made it up one day when I had too many endives left over from another recipe. It’s a light salad and great for a hot day.

Asparagus Salad
June 7
This salad is very versatile. It can be served at room temperature at an outdoor BBQ, or heated as a side dish. I actually use this as a side dish on Thanksgiving because I can make it the day before and reheat it easily by throwing it in a pan and quickly sautéing.
Serves 2.

Panzanella – Tuscan Bread Salad
June 5
This bread salad is easy to find in every Tuscan restaurant. It was created to finish up the bread from dinner the night before because the Italians don’t waste anything. Good ripe tomatoes make this a nice warm weather salad.

Baby Artichoke Salad

I came across this salad in Piemonte, Italy and went crazy over its lemony flavor. It’s a great fresh tasting salad for a hot day like today.

Bacon Avocado Salad
Go-To Salad
June 1
This is a salad we normally have three or four times a week so I always have the ingredients on hand and don’t have to think about them when making a grocery list. I throw all the ingredients in a large bowl, add dressing, and spoon onto plates.
Serves 2.
