In honor of our First Lady's Healthy School Lunches and Lets Move Programs - my student's Charter Schools are promoting her efforts. Here's how.All students - especially the culinary students - were charged with creating an easy, delicious, healthy lunch option. Then, they were to present and explain the nutritional benefits of their dish to their schoolmates.Needless to say, mostly chilled salads were presented by my students. Everything from seafood salads, to pasta salads, to macaroni salads, to garden salads. I'll post those easy recipes as their pictures are edited. Posted below is one of my youngest students submissions.Every vegetable in his salad was organic and pulled directly from my gardens. "Quick, easy, nutritious and farm to table," were his primary selling points. Talk about healthy! So, if you love fresh, chilly, crispy, cheesy, zesty, tangy tasting vegetables - you'll love this incredibly simple recipe! Serve same day or, at a maximum, overnight. Otherwise the vinager will soften your vegetables. Or, simply serve dressing to the side for a longer shelf life.

Crisp, healthy, refreshing salad to enjoy anytime! #GoldenApron23

This is a nice, refreshing side dish for a summer meal. I use cucumbers from our garden when possible, but it's just as good with store bought.

Tried with different flavors tonight, thought it would be a fun idea to create a all red salad 😃 Gluten free

A light "chunky" side dish to compliment most grilled BBQ meals or serve with Italian dishes. The fresh basil gives it a nice flavor. Add a “hint of mint” (instead of basil) and black olives for a slight, cool refreshing taste, especially with Mediterranean dishes of lamb, grilled chorizo and/or seafood.

I decided not to garden this year. Thankfully, I have a generous neighbor who provides me with the bounty from his. He provides the cucumbers, I provide the salad. Sounds like a good tradeoff to me.Cucumber salad is cold, refreshing, and perfect as a side to any BBQ dish, but perfectly good on its own. A glass of rose doesn't hurt.

Quick seafood salad with the fresh taste of dill. You can serve this as a side or it stands as a main by itself.
