We made this salad for the Solstice celebration. It is a free flowing salad, using whatever your heart desires from the CSA box. This is what we used…
Ingredients:
SALAD
1 bunch chard, ends removed, stems chopped, and leaves cut into bite-size pieces
1 bunch mizuna and tatsoi, stems removed
1 bunch radishes, sliced, stems removed from the leaves and the leaves chopped
steamed small potatoes, cut into bite-size pieces
6-8 summer squash, cut into thin strips using a mandolin or vegetable peeler
1 bunch fresh basil, torn into bite-size pieces
DRESSING
¼ cup olive oil
½ cup balsamic vinegar or to taste
sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper
4 cloves garlic, minced
Directions:
1. Mix all the ingredients for the salad together in a large bowl.
2. In a small bowl, whisk the olive oil into the vinegar and garlic. Season to taste with sea salt and pepper. Pour part of the dressing over the salad and taste – add more if needed; season again with salt and pepper if needed. Serve immediately.
