BLT Salad
Posted by Donna-Marie Pye on
When tomatoes start to flood the market in their vivid technicolor hues, it’s time to deconstruct the bacon, lettuce, and tomato sandwich. Such tomatoes are too eye appealing to hide between slices of bread. Make them the stars of the BLT, drizzling them with a creamy dressing, then topping them with some wispy greens and crisp-fried bacon. Use the tastiest tomatoes you can find, preferably in a variety of colors, sizes, and shapes. Offer bread on the side for mopping up the flavorful juices.
Barbecued Corn Salad with Oregano Vinaigrette

This is the perfect salad to make with things from the garden and/or farm market. Grilling the corn enhances the sweetness and the fresh oregano complements the sweetness and lends and earthy flavour to this delightful summer salad.

The Big Summer Salad
Posted by Donna-Marie Pye on
This salad is an excellent example of using whatever you have on had to make a great meal. If you don't have heirloom tomatoes, just use cherry tomatoes (I love using red and yellow ones if you have them), substitute peaches or plums for the nectarines, romaine or spinach for kale, curly kale for Tuscan and even red wine or balsamic vinegar for white wine vinegar. And feel free to use store-bought croutons for the homemade ones. I'll even add some cooked chicken or beef to this salad for the whole-meal-deal! Go ahead, make it your own, but at least you've got something to start with.
