Salad


We eat a lot of salad here. Particularly during lettuce season, which it is right now. You'd think that it's always lettuce season in California, but not always.

The last three weeks, we've gotten a head of lettuce at the CSA that's about 3 to 3.5 lbs. Each. I'm not exaggerating, I actually measured the one this week. 3.4 lbs.

I generally make salads with whatever I have on hand. Olive oil and vinegar (balsamic, red wine, rice wine...). Nuts, fruit, blue cheese, olives, carrots, radishes...

This salad is very pink...steamed beets, dried cranberries, shredded carrots, and a red-wine vinegar, olive oil, mustard, OJ dressing...
