I love salad. I try to eat it at least once a day, especially when I cook for myself. It’s a side dish that goes well with anything and is light, healthy and refreshing - so long as you stay away from store-bought salad dressing! There are some days that I make complicated vinaigrettes, but most days, I go with a simple Italian olive oil & vinegar combo. And, in true Italian style, I eat my salad last. If you’ve never tried it this way, give it a shot. Have your salad after your main course of meat, fish or pasta - it’s a really nice way to end a meal.
