Serious Eats offers 10 lovable salads.

I’m not sold on figs. They can be too sweet for me. But I’ve had some that are appealing, especially when combined with something tart like a balsamic reduction.

Goodness how delicious…

Spring is the time for peas and over at Serious Eats there are a bunch of good-looking recipes like this one…one time for your face.

I can’t live without salad. Crave it more than chocolate. When I was growing up, we had to help my mom make dinner or clear the table and wash the dishes. Cooking was always more appealing and we usually had a salad every night so I became the salad guy (although my brother’s got salade skills too).

Hmmm, what’ll I have fer lunch?
