Ultimate Summer Salad

Here is a summery salad idea that goes great with any main meat course.

For the dressing:
In a measuring cup put a squeeze of dijon and honey, good olive oil...maybe 1/3 cup, a squirt of lemon juice and red wine vinegar and a clove of minced garlic and a tsp each of dry basil and oregano.
The salad:
Chop and drop an avocado (sprinkle with lemon juice to maintain color) a handful baby heirloom tomatoes, handful baby spinach, chopped pickled beets, half a cucumber, handful diced feta and a few chopped up pickled jalapenos.
Drizzle yummy veg with the dressing and mix well. You will have leftover dressing to use in your week.

Dirty Monkey Fruit Shake for Two

Sorry, no picture for this one. It was too good and we gulped it up in seconds. Here's what you do:

Place the following in a food processor:
Two bananas, two heaping tbsps of light peanut butter, two small strawberry yogurts, roughly 3/4 cup milk, small handful ice cubes, squirt each of honey and corn syrup, dash of cinnamon, two large handfuls of fresh blueberries. Pulse until smooth and serve in two large glasses. Finish off with a sprinkling of raw rolled oats. Voila.

Crispy Pan Fried Haddock with Sprouts

I loved making this because it basically cooked itself. The salad requires a bit more prep but it's worth it. Enjoy.

For the salad:
Get your bowl ready with a generous spritz of olive oil, a shot of balsamic and red wine vinegar, 2 minced garlic cloves, a tsp of dry basil and oregano, salt and pepper and zest from one orange.
Next simply add one can drained chic peas, one can drained corn niblets, a diced tomato, a giant handful of fresh baby spinach, some chopped basil leaves, finely sliced red onion, and some diced feta cheese. Mix well and voila... You can add more salt and pepper if needed.

For the fish:
The key to a crispy coating is to first get your frying pan nice and hot with a generous coating of olive oil.
Next, leave it alone on medium high heat for about 8 minutes.

Season your fish with salt and pepper and coat with a light dusting of flour and panko bread crumbs then add to pan. Flip over after 5 minutes or so for another 4 minutes. Remove and spritz with fresh lemon and top with some fresh onion sprouts!
Done and ready to impress.
