Let's talk about summer and easy summer meals. Have you guys done anything fun this summer so far? Any plans coming up? I honestly just want to buy a blow-up pool and lounge in it for days. We have a concert coming up which will allow us to get away for a weekend. I am REALLY looking forward to it.
I've also been reading so much more, and it's making me wish I had a porch so I could spend the evenings out there. I usually like to read non-fiction, but summer always makes me want to read those summer specific books that come out every year. This is a great list from one of my favorite bloggers, and I'm hoping to work through a lot of those recommendations. Our vacation isn't until the beginning of October, so I'm extending my summer reading until then.
On to the recipe! This is one of the most delicious recipes I've made in a long time, and it's so quick. It's also easy to customize to fit the produce that's in season, or the tastes of your family. Please make this, and tell me how you like it.
Honey Mustard Potato, Spinach, & Salami Salad
recipe from Barefoot in the Kitchen
2 lbs red potatoes
1/4 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons whole grain mustard
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
2 teaspoons honey
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
12 ounces of salami (I used pre-cut)
a few handfuls of baby spinach
a few handfuls of baby spinach
2 green onions, sliced thin
Boil potatoes until tender.
Whisk together oil, mustard, vinegar, honey, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Add potatoes, salami, green onions, baby spinach, and toss gently to coat in dressing and allow spinach to wilt. Serve warm with a poached or fried egg. This also tastes fantastic cold!
