springtime means salad time!
tonight i came home and made myself a very simple plus yummy salad. sorry no pics this time, but this is what i used:
1/2 small red onion, sliced thin (it kind of overpowered everything so i think next time [read: tomorrow's lunch], i'm going to use a 1/4 of that...)
thinnish slices of goat's cheese (i found a dutch goat's cheese at tj's and realised it should have been sliced a bit thicker but it was still really good. very mild but very good, especially for someone who isn't a big fan of goat's cheese)
1/2 pear (i bought organic but any kind would work..i usually buy whatever looks nicest)
about a hand-full of sliced almonds
romane lettuce (any kind of salad green would do but i've been eating a lot of the baby greens so i wanted a change of pace)
trader joe's basalmic vinaigrette
layer everything on a plate and enjoy! i wish i had some crusty bread and a glass of wine, but the only wine in the house is sherry so i did without the wine and bread. instead, i had a glass of soy milk to wash it all down.
serves 1
yum! yum!
