My mom always had a big garden so this was a staple salad in the summer.

We had a ton of tomatoes bell peppers, and cabbage and Lettuce . What do you do? Make a great garden salad for dinner.

Goes well with about any meal.

Best salad you'll ever eat!

My twist on the ubiquitous, mildly mysterious, always delicious Japanese restaurant orange salad dressing. :)

I don't know why i called this apple garden salad, 😁😁lol.. Maybe it's because Apple surrounded by green veges.😊😊

Well, this is what I get for leaving them all unattended huh? My wife and 7 year old culinary students got bored and decided to make this chilly little dish yesterday. It's 20 vegetables of zesty veritable deliciousness! Excellent work kiddos! You too Tammie!

It was 125F degrees yesterday afternoon outside in the kitchen garden. 51 Celcius. Thin skinned tomatoes split and cooked on the vine. The green peppers scorched. The armenian cucumbers wilted. The grapes split and shriveled. The summer squash have burn spots on them. I grow these veggies in big 3’ wide, 2’ deep cloth planterpots with handles, so I can drag them to spots that get less afternoon sun. I harvested the sun damaged ones, made this improbably huge salad with lemon, olive oil, pepper. Served with 4 chipotle pork ribs on top of baked summer squash. And wine margeritas.
