I made this recipe months ago. In all honesty, I think it was before summer actually hit. Trust me when I say that we haven't completely stopped cooking, although lately we have not been adventurous by any means. Unfortunately, life gets in the way of the things that we all enjoy and for me those things are reading, cooking, and blogging (to name a few). Now that my last PhD exam is over with, hopefully I can start getting back into my life's routine.
I found this recipe on Two Peas and Their Pod, one of my two favorite food blogs. I will admit that I was a little skeptical at first. It just seems like a very odd combination to me. However, I pushed my mind open a little bit and decided to try it since Maria (and Josh) has yet to steer me wrong! I love everything that I have tried from her (their) blog.
This recipe was definitely interesting, but was also amazing at the same time. I love all of the individual ingredients alone, but together they made a wonderful, light, and healthy summer salad. The flavors come together well and I could easily eat this for breakfast, lunch, or supper. I did not change Maria's recipe at all. You can see her original post here. Enjoy!
On another note: Am I the only one that is addicted to all of the amazing dishes that would be great for food photography. I feel like every time I go to Kroger or Walmart I see one that I want to buy just one of in every color!
