Summer Pepper Salad

 

First off, I must admit that I LOVE bell peppers. I love the way they taste and their texture. So I thought I would share a salad that I made up involving them that I just love! Last night I made it to accompany salmon and rice. 

What you need: 

*2 large bell peppers whichever color you like.. I did red and orange.. chopped into small pieces

*8-10 grape tomatoes.. cut in half or thirds

* 1/4 cup Balsamic Vinegar

* 1/4 cup Olive Oil

*2-3 cloves of fresh garlic depending on how much you like garlic

*1/2 tablespoon dried basil or 3-4 leaves of fresh basil

Mix it all together..

ENJOY!

Happy Earth Day!

Spring Garden

Spring time is coming!
I am so excited! Therefore I keep thinking about building this year's garden. I am trying to think about which foods we love to eat all the time and small recipes that can be made easily with fresh herbs and vegetables. 

In our garden, I for sure want to include:

• bell Peppers
• cilantro
• tomatoes (my favorite food)
• cucumbers
• lettuce
• basil
• rosemary
• carrots 
• garlic

Any other vegetables/herbs you think I should include??
