Salad with eggs and potatoes


Sometimes, when you eat too much of the christmas cookies you have made, it is time to toss a salad. This time we have made a salad of what we have lying around. Since salad is sometimes all about using the type of greens you like, we will only write the recipe for the french dressing that we have used for this.

FRENCH DRESSING

4 tablespoons of good virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon of white wine vinegar
1 teaspoon of honey
1 teaspoon of dijon mustard
sea salt (maldon) and freshly grounded pepper

The only rule we have, when we are not following a recipe for salads, is that we give a thought to which colors we use together, we like to use complementary colors, they are pleasing to the eye. And use f ex small pieces of mango, sharon or mandarins to get a sweeter taste to your salad. A sprinkle of seeds from sunflower or cashewnuts is a nice and healthy accessory aswell as is yesterdays potato leftovers.

Hvitløk kan kanskje evt. være å anbefale i dressingen. Ann Elisabet

Veldig flott matside dere lager. Alt ser så godt ut. Skal prøve noen av oppskriftene etterhvert. Og den rosa bilen er også søt :-)
