salads101...101salads



the minimalist, Mark Bittman, published an article on 101 salads last week. they all take less than 20 minutes and are truly a product of his genius.

here are some of my faves from his list...

astonishing
tomatoes, peaches, red onion, red pepper flakes and cilantro. drizzle with olive oil and lime or lemon juice.

there is no better use of raw carrots
shredded carrots, cumin seeds, olive oil, lemon juice and cilantro. raisins can add some sweetness to the mix.

this will be even better in the fall
slice fennel and crisp apple, and mix with mustardy vinaigrette and parsley.
