hot weather dinner







I spent some time in the gardens today. It was hot. Blazing hot. The sun felt good - the sweat, not so much...

Tonight for dinner I wanted to use what I could from the gardens. I harvested peas, raspberries, and lettuce. I also had some corn from the market. I will be using the lettuce and raspberries tomorrow with chevre for a nice lunch salad.



I love summer salads! These are three of my favorites~

The pea pods with sesame oil and seeds are wonderful on a hot afternoon.




The corn salad is one of our summer staples - there is nothing like fresh corn off of the cob~



And this chicken salad with herbs from my garden is fabulous!




I hope you are staying cool wherever you may be - warm if you are down-under!

Have a fabulous weekend,
xx
