Summer Salad

Summer salads are great and have a great taste too! My kids and I love a great salad.
Here is a simple recipe that brings out the flavors of the fresh summer greens.

The ingredients you will need are 
  • 2 cups garden lettuce (Any Green Leafy Garden Produced Lettuce)
  • 1/2 cup red cabbage sliced
  • 3 diced roma tomatoes
  • 5 tsps Red Wine Vinegar
  • 1/2 cup chick peas (Ceci Beans)
  • 3 tsps of Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 2 tsps of Extra Virgin Olive Oil set aside for the Kale
  • 1 cup Kale
  • Oregano and basil Dry or Garden Fresh (Optional)
Mix ingredients in large bowl minus the Kale and Olive Oil
Soak the Kale in the olive oil for 10 - 30 minutes.
Olive Oil softens the texture of the Kale for a delicious flavor
Mix the vinegar and olive oil together in a larger bowl once the Kale has softened.
Ready to eat, and DELICIOUS!
Makes about 5 servings.
