The Perfect Summer Salad
I love me a big salad, call me Elaine if you must, but a big salad is damn satisfying. So many flavours, especially in the summer when it's hot out and all I want is a nice light meal. This is the ultimate summer salad for me. Perfect for the vegetarians but also great if you want to add some grilled steak.
Ingredients:
1 container arugula
1 container spinach
1 cup blueberries
1 cup strawberries
1/2 cup walnuts
1 avocado sliced up
1/2 medium sized cucumber
Balsamic dressing 1/4 cup
