Mango Pomegranate Green Lettuce Salad

Hello foodie friends,

How is everyone? I hope everyone enjoyed their weekend.  We had a nice weekend, we found another park close to our home to take Charlie.  Let me tell you did he do some serious running around.  Unfortunately,  it was very windy so there weren’t many dogs at the park. 🙁    The weather has been generally good with the exception of these past few days.  For lunch, I had prepared this Mango, Pomegranate Green salad with a few other ingredients.  For instance, I even added a few crushed walnuts and almonds just to give it a crunchier taste.

This is another one of my go-to salad recipes.   As a salad buff, I have many go-to salad recipes.  But I have a few that are my top 3 favorites.  I love the large gamma of in-season produce, green salads, vegetables, and fruits.  Lettuce can be found all year round, at farmer markets, small shops, and supermarkets but I like to grow my own in my above-ground mini garden.  I planted seeds earlier this year, and I was able to use one of my little lettuces to make this salad.  🙂   This Mango, Pomegranate is so vibrant,  look at the colors, green, red, yellow-orange how could you not want to indulge?  I topped my salad with balsamic vinegar, olive oil, and dill dressing and it was just divine.

Have a great morning/noon/evening, everyone 🙂

Don’t forget if you are a fan of “Behind the Greek Apron” Episode 4 is live.

Welcome to a small corner of my Greek Heritage. Growing up in New York from Greek parents, was a challenge of its own...but the traditional food, tastes and aromas that my mother cooked always travelled me back to Greece. My mother is a wonderful cook, our house would always have that smell of home cooked food. I remember very clearly that we were only allowed fast food, once a week, that was a huge day for myself and my brother. Jumping up and down in the back car seat, laughing, just being kids. It is true that we all like to eat different foods, taste, smell, even try food that looks different than our regular meals at home and I think that is so natural. In my teens, I was not really into cooking, I enjoyed my magazines after school, listening to music, and just taking a breather. There were times that I would glance at some of my mom's recipes, more out of curiosity than to actually try to cook them. At that time I did not realise that cooking would become my passion one day. Slowly, I would start to look into my mom's recipes a bit more each day and I started to find it interesting as a hobby. Each month I would go into our neighborhood bookstore and pick up my monthly book, until one day I decided to stroll over into the cooking section. That summer was the first time I actually bought a cooking magazine....and I loved it. Cooking and baking started out as a hobby, but now after many years it is my passion. Exploring the cuisines, the spices, the oils, the scents, the variety of smells and tastes that exist. It was and still is an amazing journey without limits. So, come along with me on this adventure, and I hope you enjoy my recipes. Sophie
