Grama Sue's Green Salad


Or is it, “What's in Grama Sue's salad today?


My salad's change all the time with the seasons and with my fancy. Grampa Tom says my salads are always an adventure. Good thing he is a more adventurous eater than he used to be!


I love to put different herbs and wild ingredients as well as lettuce, chard, other salad greens and garden veggies in my salads. This one has:


Ice Berg Lettuce

Red and Green Baby Chard

Lemon Balm

Fingerling Zucchini

Oregano

Lemon Basil

Chopped Chives, Parsley and Dill Leaves

Snow Peas

Buttercup Weed

Radishes

Kohlrabi

My very first Red Ripe Tomato

and Red Clover Leaves and Flowers


Varying and mixing different herbs and other ingredients ensures a good variety of vitamins and minerals. Make sure your salad has a good variety of colors and throw in a few edible flowers for fun!
