Summer Salads

Now that we are in the summer months and the weather is warmer I tend to make a lot more salads.  It is fun to be creative when putting together a salad. Adding beans, nuts, whole grains, fruits, vegetables and cheeses can boost flavor and will provide important nutrients and fiber.  With this salad I uses a base of organic mixed greens.  I then added left over grilled chicken along with a Tuscan Bean Salad mix and some cut up tomatoes and peppers.  For dressing I added a little red wine vinegar, olive oil, salt and pepper.  It was delicious and very filling.
