My go-to summer salad

8.31.2011



How is it August 31st already? No summer, you cannot go just yet!

One of my favorite things this summer, has been this salad. When it comes to salad, its always been pretty basic for me: Caesar, plain lettuce with grilled chicken, sometimes even a steak salad. After browsing Foodgawker one day earlier in the summer, I decided to try a new ingredient in my usually basic salads: strawberries! 

The combination of the lettuce, with the strawberries, goat cheese, and (on this day) turkey is unexpectedly delicious. With the addition of my absolute favorite pear and champagne dressing from Trader Joe's, its hard to remember that it is not just tasty, but healthy. I will continue to enjoy this salad, as long as the fresh strawberries of summer will allow me.

Now its your turn! Whether its food, a destination, or an article of clothing, what are you going to miss most about summer?
