How’s your Winter trucking along? Mine is chilly but nice, full of comfort food and lots of indoor time.  I’m looking forward to busting out when the weather is a bit nicer. I can’t wait for warmer days, to lose that chill that’s hanging in the air.  I’m also looking forward to those warm afternoons, icy drinks, sandals and bare legs.  And salads. I am really looking forward to those too.  How about you?

Don’t get me wrong, I really love comfort food.  Soups and stews and slow cooked delights.  But I need my comfort interspersed with lots of healthy crunch.  I like to mix it up and keep things balanced. Maybe you do too.

There’s nothing like a big bowl of crunchy salad to make you feel good.  And if you partner it with a chilled glass of wine and  maybe even a spoonful of chilli and a few friends, then I think you’re totally sorted.

Let’s do salad!  Let’s get crunchy!

Which one will you make first? I’m quite into the potato salad (even though it bucks the crunchy trend!)

    I may making that carrot salad as part of a big family tortilla dinner but the tofu and quinoa combo will be saved for Meatfree Mon, ooh la la!
