It’s about 65 ⁰F outside where I am in Ontario. The soil inside my veg growing containers is still frozen. There’s a little snow left but it will probably be gone by tomorrow.
The crocuses are up, so it’s first spring. We will have snow again before April.
Hopefully the snow won’t stay for long. It’s 15 degrees Celsius where I live (60 Fahrenheit) so the snow is starting to melt. Apparently we are expecting lots of rain tomorrow so it will melt even more of the snow - yay! We always seem to get one last snow storm at the end of March but the it never stays for long.
I made this lentil salad from Bon Appetit mag yesterday and had it over some salad greens lightly dressed in EVOO and lemon juice for lunch today. I really enjoy the flavors and textures of this salad. Definitely will make again! Make-Ahead Lentil Salad Recipe | Bon Appétit
I made this recipe for Cauliflower Shawarma, but dressed the cauliflower with all of the tahini sauce and added cukes and olives so I could use it as a lunch salad during the week. Ugly but good at room temp over fresh spinach and some yellow grape tomatoes.
The base salad sounds like one that a cafe near me used to serve – but with parmesan not feta, and the addition of fresh peas. Will have to make it again soon!
There was a vendor in Union Station in DC 20 years ago that sold a baguette filled with Cobb Salad. I sometimes picked one up before my commute home (did not eat it on the train!) because I love Cobb Salad.
Funny how Americans love to eat on the go, in their cars etc.
Before I visited Japan just before Covid, December 2019, I read up on customs and was surprised to learn that they consider it very rude to eat in public, walking around and all.
