Summer Salad

Going over to the West coast to see DandP tonight. Our instructions are to bring a salad. Nipped out into the garden and got this... pretty fab!

we've also got a trug full of new potatoes so will add some eggs and make a lovely potato salad as well. Should all go rather well with venison done on the barby.


OOOOoooo added a pic of the dinner...
EVERYTHING on this plate is homegrown or home 'caught' - potato salad - potatoes from the garden, eggs from the chooks, spring onions from the garden.  Tomato and pepper salad - all ingredients from the garden. Venison, by Danny.  I think it looks like something from an excellent restaurant!

  1. There is something so satisfying about turning up somewhere for dinner with a plate of food that is not only home made but also home grown. Have a great week. Elaina xo
