Meal Idea – Salad

After Rosangel & I finished the Cafecit Break podcast, I went to run an errand with my Mom. When I returned, my hubby had made a salad!!!
I must confess that I was really hungry. I made some cool celery juice & drank it while I added some ingredients to my salad.
I posted the above Tweet, and was asked by Henry’s Ice Cream@HenrysIceCream about the ingredient:
Here’s what I responded:
1st: Fresh celery juice
2nd:Spring Mix, Kimchi (homemade), Steamed carrots, mushrooms, cucumber, blue cheese crumbles, olives, fermented pickle (homemade), dandelion greens, shredded carrots, cherry tomatoes, chickpeas. Dressing: olive oil & balsamic vinegar.
My hubby (@gushin) made the base salad (no tomatoes, chickpeas, dandelion greens) while I was out. He added tuna and poppy seed dressing to his. I added the tomatoes, chickpeas, & dandelion greens (no tuna) and had the evoo & balsamic vinegar dressing on mine.
It was really yummy & quite satisfying.
