The Making of a Great Salad

Since the Steem blockchain became a centralized, top-down dominated place, where control and censorship thrive, I have decided to move my content. Don't worry, though, all my posts and up and doing well on the decentralized Hive blockchain. Come and check it out!
@stortebeker Too bad that Uncle Bob did not mix watercress with the greens. I would even tell him where I grew it. Growing up in Connecticut, my mom would frequently send my brother and me on a dandelion excursion to have greens to add to the salad.
Good to hear that your mom would put dandelion in the salad! It's tasty, very healthy, and generally considered a weed, so people normally don't even think about eating it. Now watercress.... oh, such a nice smell, and also delicious.
You, my friend.... make one mean salad!!! And you have me drooling over here, too. 😍
Nice, thank you @greenacrehome!
My main meal at lunchtime everyday now is a salad. I usually end up with something like you have a described but I hadn't broken it down in to the components like you have here - I do like that. Thank you.
I know, I used to hate salad (kinda like the non-specific but all to common Uncle Bob). Used to, until I figured out to make it the right way. Now I consider it one of the most basic foods.
Yum, I had an awesome salad last night with all the ingredients from the garden. I love to add different components like you do. The spice was from nasturtium flowers (they have a peppery flavor) and I cooked up a couple deer brats and sliced em' up and added them. It was fantastic! Salads do deserve to be a main course.
Cool, I gotta try the nasturium flowers! And what are brats, please? I mean, other than a spoiled child. :-D
Oh okay, I got it: bratwursts! Ha, figured it out before sending the reply! Wow, deer brats, awesome! I consider wild meat superior: the animal was out and about all its life, while eating what it is supposed to eat. Can't get better than that.
I didn't even think about it reading as a brat, too funny. I have been fortunate enough to harvest a couple deer each year. I can a large portion of the meat. It certainly tastes superior to anything you'd buy in the grocery.
