I love food. I love reading about it, talking about it, watching cooking shows, cooking and, of course, eating. I am constantly trying new recipes or new versions of old recipes. However, I have always been terrible at writing any of my recipes down. Therefore, my goal is to use this blog to record recipes . . . finally.

Simple Summer Salad
Salad without lettuce, as my three-year-old calls it, is an easy salad that serves as a great lunch or side to a pasta dinner. It is especially delicious during the summer when cucumbers and tomatoes are fresh and delicious. I grow both in my garden and love to pick some from my backyard and turn it into an easy dish!
Serves 4 (as a side dish)
2 Carrots, peeled and sliced
About Half of an English Cucumber, sliced (I slice in quarters for bite size pieces)
1/2 to 3/4 Cup Grape Tomatoes, sliced in half
1/3 to 1/2 Cup Roasted Red Peppers, chopped (I love Cento the best, when homemade is not available)
1/4 Cup Crumbled Feta
2 Tbsps Extra Virgin Olive Oil
2-3 Tbsps Seasoned Rice Wine Vinegar
Combine all of the veggies and cheese in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Add oil and vinegar and toss to combine. Enjoy!
