This salad is so easy, refreshing, and delicious! It takes about five minutes to prepare and is the perfect compliment to a rich, wintry comfort meal. I made it with organic Cara Cara navel oranges, which are my new latest obsession. The color is salmony and the flavor is so fragrant. You can make this salad with any kind of orange, though (even blood orange!). And fresh organic fennel is now easy to find in my supermarket, as well.

Pomegranate Salad
My nephew had a Spanish girlfriend once, and she made a salad similar to this one for Christmas.

This lovely girlfriend made the salad with escarole, but I have a hard time finding organic escarole, so I made it with a mixture of other fresh greens.
Kale Salad with Lemon Dressing
Once, at ABC Kitchen in New York City, I had an amazing kale salad. So I thought I’d give it a try to replicate at home.

Kale salad again!” I know. I have a weird family. But it really is good. And easy to make.

So this summer I was determined to make a version that is just as yummy and not as thick and goopy as the usual one.

Three-Bean Salad in 10 Minutes – An American Classic
The other day I had a hankering for three-bean salad. Perhaps it was that I wanted something pickle-like… So I quickly found a recipe and adapted it to my own taste (I cut the sugar!) and made it organic. This recipe took all of 10 minutes to make.

September Salad: Tomato, Mozzarella, and Avocado
We often think of tomatoes as a summer pleasure, but the reality is that fresh tomatoes are a LATE-summer pleasure, meaning right up through the equinox in September or until the frost has come to blacken our little summer hearts. (OK, can you tell I prefer summer to autumn? Although, I must admit, the changing […]
