FOR THE LOVE OF SALADS
& MOTHERS

***

Growing up at home, I spent much of my childhood hearing my mum tell me how much she loved salads.

And then on many occasions, I’ve watched her eat a whole bowl of salad greens with a relish unlike any I have ever seen – fresh, crispy greens with an unparalleled crunchiness in every bite.

Over the years, I’ve transitioned from having an immense dislike of salads to craving them now; some times I like them so much I eat salads as a main meal completely.

One of my favorite salads here in Argentina is a really simple combination of all the loveliest flavors, using the freshest of vegetables, straight from the market.

The spiciness of dark green arugula leaves intertwined with the tastes of the forest from sliced button mushrooms, then mixed with the sweet, juicy pulp of freshly cut tomatoes and crunchy rich wholesome walnuts.

On top of all these, add warm, toasted croutons just out of the oven.

Now imagine all these amazing ingredients tossed with salt, vinegar and extra virgin olive oil.

This post is dedicated to all mothers out there, in celebration of Mother’s Day this Sunday, but especially dedicated to my mum, for her love of salads and because she’s a fantastic mother.

I love you mummy! Happy Mother’s Day!
