Refreshing Salads...

Nothing like cold salads to beat the summer-time heat! Light and refreshing, they're not only healthy but also easy to make!


Though i do enjoy the evergreen salads like Greek, Chickpea and German Potato...i have lately been partial towards salads with fruit! I think a touch of fruit adds a zing to any salad. My preferred fruits for salads - grapes, oranges, apples, kiwi, and strawberries!

A recent delicacy - lettuce, cherry tomatoes and orange salad with gouda cheese

Here's my all-time-favorite dressing:

2 tbsps olive oil
1 tsp Dijon mustard
1 tsp honey
1/2 tsp balsamic vinegar
1/2 tsp chopped garlic
1 tsp finely chopped parsley
a pinch of salt and pepper

Combine everything in a bowl, cover with cling-film, and keep aside for 15-20 mins to let the flavours mix.
