Swirly Curly Salad!

Hola Amiga's! (and amigos!)

Hope you are all good and you are getting better weather in your neck of the woods!! We  had a whole weekend of beautiful sunshine and felt SO spoiled!!  I’m so ready for summer!

Speaking of summer – to me summer = a more raw diet!  Winter is cold and I crave chewy carbs (bread, pasta etc) in the summer I crave FRESH crisp veggies and fruit!

This weekend with the weather so nice, we had our first meal out in the back yard and I made a super quick and super easy salad!

I used the bigger blade of my spiralizer and I made up these swirls of zucchini, daikon radish and beets!

For the dressing – I used a TBSP raw apple cider vinegar, about a tsp grape seed oil, salt and pepper and that’s all!!

It turned out so good and fresh!  and I realized I LOVE raw beets!!

With the rest of my meal!

Sautéed Swiss chard with fresh garlic,  BBQed corn and a wee piece of left over trout! (and bbq sauce)

I LOVE outside meals!

What is your favourite thing about nicer weather?
