How to make good salad...

One thing I find somewhat devastating is when people think that salad is boring. No, no, no my dear sweet friends this is not the case. Salad is limitless, it just takes a creative mind and more than sliced cucumbers to do so. This is my "favorite" salad at the moment. It always changes, but for now....she wins!!

Fresh Sexy Lettuce Leaves


Toppings:
Heirloom Tomatoes
Fuji Apples
Avocado
Portobello Mushrooms
Cucumber
Sundried Tomatoes


Slice it, all over your bed of greens.


Dressing:
Stone Ground Mustard
Olive Oil
Agave Nectar
Lemon
Water
Ground Pepper


Stir, stir, stir!


Bacon Bit Topping:
Sunflower Seeds
Garlic
Sea Salt
Basil
Lemon

Blend on pulse, sprinkle over your salad. Top with dressing.
Now you see.... thats all it takes and you're loving salad all over again!
