Summer and salads

As a kid I did not like salads. I started enjoying salads a few years back and now in summer ensure I have it regularly. Have never had a change of eating tomatoes right off the vine.

@DaddyEvil I have a window sill in which I tried gardening but it did not work out. Dont know what I was doing wrong.

@mayka123 Tomatoes are the best when they're still hot from the sun. YUM! I grew up on a farm and we grew all our own veggies. I don't have room for a big garden but I still enjoy growing some things myself.

@mayka123 My favorite is the potato salad. It is mixed with diced carrots, diced cheese, and pineapple chunks then add mayo with squeezed lemon. I make simple salads, not gourmet. I love Waldorf Salad simply made with diced apples, raisins, nuts (any kind), and lettuce added with mayo and pepper. I love all sorts of salads. I usually experiment them or watch them on youtube.

@jeanbug23 I am not too fond of carrots and very rarely buy them. Have not tried salad with apples and raisins and nuts. Should try it out.

What kind of salads do you make at home?

I cut the watermelon in half and keep it in the fridge. Whenever I feel like having a few bites I just scoop out with a spoon and eat it. I don't bother cutting it when I am alone and don't have to share it with anyone.

Salad indeed can be made with a lot of variations and a lot of different toppings. What are your favourites?

@maclanis My salad is usually of tomato, cucumber, cabbage, raw mango if available and some sprouts added if available.

@mayka123 I like tomatoes, almonds and mangoes. What about you?

I cannot always afford bacon and sunflower seeds, so I usually buy just what's available within my budget.

@mayka123 Yes this is what we have to do

Yes, the heat around here is getting from bad to worse. That's why I have started to include more salads in my meals because that cools the system.
