salad

Spring is upon us, and the redwood forest around my home has come to life. A friend told me recently that the lush clover-like ground cover that’s been popping up all spring in my yard is actually edible!

Here is one of the yummy healthy salad recipes I promised. I hope this helps get the “more veggies” thing going for you.

Curly kale is best when in season. Right now you can still find the nice soft curly stuff. When the leaves feel hard and tough (see two images below), just switch to “lacinto” or “dinosaur” kale which is the kind with the long straighter leaves.

Grow your own salad, save food miles, avoid pesticides, fertilisers and herbicides. Eat tastier healthier food and save money. What more do you want?
