I started this blog so my daughters could find all of our family favourite recipes in one place. It has actually grown into more than just the family favourites but also other recipes we've tried out in our kitchen. I don't like to fill up the post with alot of chatter. Sometimes there's a little story to tell, but usually I like to get right to the point. So this is for them, but hope you find some recipes that you like as well. I'll be sharing a lot of recipes, and along the way you'll find some crafty things and maybe some helpful hints too! Welcome!

Hearty Mediterranean Salad

There are no actual amounts in the ingredient list because, really, you just want to make a bed of romaine and kale then pile on all the stuff you like!

Suggested ingredients:

romaine lettuce, torn
kale, sliced thinly
red and green pepper, sliced
cherry tomatoes
celery, sliced
fennel, sliced
purple basil
genoa salami, sliced
chick peas, drained and rinsed
carrot, shredded
olives, sliced or whole

And cheese, I should have added cheese to this salad 




This miso dressing is a good choice but any Italian dressing will work just fine.

Miso Dressing:

3 tbsps lemon juice
2 tbsps tahini (good level of calcium and protein)
1 - 2 tsps maple syrup or honey
1 tbsp red wine vinegar or apple cider vinegar
1 tbsp miso paste (shiro miso - mild and best for dressings)
pinch of salt
1/2 tsp each dry oregano and basil
1 tsp parmesan
