The "Stuff in My Fridge/Garden" Salad + Chicken
I have tons of produce in my refrigerator and garden that I need to eat. Like rows of lettuce in my garden and a crisper drawer of stuff I picked or bought and need to eat while it's still fresh. What better way than salad? It actually turned out quite tasty so I am sharing it here (and documenting it for myself so I can replicate it later) so you can enjoy it also.
First I chopped:
four or five little sweet peppers
a stalk of celery
a handful of parsley (from my garden)
a couple green onions (from my garden)
about a half a cup of cheese (I used cheddar)
a large tomato
and while I would like to say I grilled up a chicken breast (which I highly recommend) I was lazy and threw on a can of chicken I picked up at Costco
Then I picked red lettuce and green lettuce and spinach from my garden.
I tossed the chopped ingredients in a bowl and piled a scoop onto my lettuce.
I topped mine with lime cilantro dressing which is oh-so-good, but which I have yet to post a recipe for. So you may top it with whatever your heart desires. . . and soon I will post the recipe for the lime cilantro because you really should introduce it to your palate. It will thank you.
