I don't know about you, but I love a good salad! It's so versatile, you can add pretty much anything, and it's great all year round! Especially summertime - I mean, who wants to slave away in the kitchen over a hot stove when it's 90 degrees outside? Not me.
Here are some salad recipes I'll be trying this summer:
