Then there are lots of herbs here that I used to combine with the ricotta cheese. Summer Saladwith Herbed Ricotta and Balsamic Vinaigrette – a simple saladwith gorgeous heirloom tomatoes, cucumbers and radishes and drizzled with a simple balsamic vinaigrette and a dollop of herbed ricotta takes this salad over the top
Avocado andChickpeaSaladwith Pomegranates is an outrageously nutritious saladwith lots of vitamins, protein and healthy fat your body needs especially when it is getting chilly outside
The broth adds flavor without calories, and a dollop of Greek yogurt adds creaminess and tang. A jar with a lid works perfectly for dressings that don’t need chunky ingredients like fresh herbs or garlic to be well blended
It is then tossed withchickpeasand warm cauliflower that has also been cooked in warming spices. Keep it light, and pair this curried cauliflower saladwith a farmhouse ale or saison
Cut each cherry tomato in half and add to a bowl along with the chickpeas. That is how I know that this salad also works with out the kale but it is better with it, my husband doesn’t know what he is missing
For dinner last night, we made homemade ricotta, then mixed it with fresh herbs to make a creamy spread for thick slices of grilled bread, ribbony asparagus saladwith lemon and parmesan (which I can't take credit for--this pretty salad was inspired by Smitten Kitchen), and spicy skewered shrimp
Dave thought this salad was unusual but also didn't hate it -- I suppose that isn't the most glowing recommendation but it certainly is a unique mix of ingredients
