Big, monster, huge salad. I went to the Korean greengrocer and got fresh items, plus what I have from the garden. Besides all the vegetables like cucumber, peppers, etc., I harvested some cranberry beans that I will cook in butter and add to the salad. Chopped celery from the garden, too. Since the basil is coming in now, I'll slice some of that to go in as well.
Cold chicken breast, avocado, and turkey bacon on top.
I have romaine, black seeded simpson, green, and red tip lettuce for the greens.
Pineapple peach kombucha.

Recipe on request.

(10,654 posts)The only size of mozerella I can find around here is a 1 pound chunk, which is enough for 2 pizzas. Same with pepperoni - the sticks the local market carries are enough for two. So we do 2 pizzas in a 7-10 day period.
