I have dressed it with a lemony-basil dressing which has a nice sharpness that contrasts with the sweetness of the strawberries (if you don’t like the sharpness you can add up to a teaspoon of sugar or honey to make it have less of a kick), but you could just as easily use your favorite dressing such as a French dressing or simple oil and balsamic vinegar
Today I have for you an absolute stunner - Sweet Potato saladwith spring onion andgoatscheese. Now as you may recall, I've succeeded at emulating Ottolenghi's sweet potato cakes, which I still fantasise and salivate over
Once I had it tossed all together, it morphed into this perfect summer salad – sweet strawberries, crisp spinach, creamy goatcheese, crunchy pecans and herbaceous pesto
spring salad greens. crumbled goatcheese. pine nuts, toasted. Whisk together 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar and Dijon mustard in a small bowl. Slowly whisk in 1 tablespoon oil and then 1 tablespoon hot water until well-blended. Toss beets in a small bowl with 1 teaspoon of the vinaigrette, and set aside. Toss asparagus with remaining 1/2 tablespoon oil in a small shallow baking pan. Arrange in a single layer in pan, and sprinkle with salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. roast in middle of oven, shaking pan occasionally, for 10 minutes or until lightly browned and just tender. Drizzle with remaining 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar, and return to oven for 1 minute or until vinegar is reduced to a glaze. Arrange salad greens, asparagus, and reserved beets on 4 plates, and sprinkle with pine nuts andgoatcheese. Drizzle saladwith remaining vinaigrette, and sprinkle with the remaining 1/8 teaspoon pepper. whole jarred pickled beets, drained and quartered (about 6 1/2 ounces)
Then you throw in the tangy, vibrant, magenta-hued pickled onions, peppery arugula, salty goatcheeseandsweet, toasted pine nuts for a trip to tasty town
It’s so versatile, and you can make so many variations of cornbreads…sweetand savoury. This time round I decided on making an almond cornmeal cake with a whipped cream cheese topping and fresh strawberries
In this rendition, I add peaches to sweeten up the salad a bit more. I've been keeping it simple with my kale salads by making a simple dressing of olive oil, lemon juice, and sometimes a few squirts of maple syrup or honey
This panino consists of warm, jammy strawberries, tangy goatcheeseand fresh basil sandwiched between golden brown, buttery whole wheat levain, served with a side of balsamic honey dipping sauce
), and I decided to try a copycat version of a salad I tried at a gourmet restaurant recently – an almond crusted goatcheese spinach saladwithsweet dumpling squash
If you do get stain on your hands, you can remove it with a little lemon juice. Adding the quinoa keeps you full and the goatcheese is just an added bonus
