Summer Salad

What can the vegan and meat eater have for lunch? Salads, sandwiches, and wraps can all be easily modified to fit the fancy of both. Salads are quick and easy to make if you have all the ingredients handy. This Summer Salad was Jeff's (the meat eater) creation.



Summer Salad

Prep time: 10-15 minutes
Servings: 1 salad
Ingredients: 

2-3 C. Spring salad mix (pre-packaged/washed)
3 Sliced baby carrots
1/2 C. Sliced zucchini squash
1/2 Small chopped tomato  
1/2 Chopped pear
1/4 C. Dried cranberries
1/4 C. Peanuts*
3-4 T. Balsamic Vinegar
3-4 T. Olive Oil
Salt & Pepper to taste
Garlic powder to taste

Start by putting the salad mix and the vegetables on the salad in order listed. Drizzle balsamic vinegar and olive on top and a shake salt, pepper, and garlic power on top to your desired amount.

Now, if the meat eater has some meat or cheese or hard boiled egg he'd like to have, you can add that to his with little extra effort.

This is a pretty simple recipe you can have for lunch or a light dinner. You can obviously add more or less of the ingredients depending on how much you'd like to eat.



*Check your peanut ingredients! Some dry roasted peanuts have GELATIN on them which is on the list of ingredients the vegan cannot eat!
