BUTTER LETTUCE SPRING SALAD

Great news!  The book goes to the publisher tomorrow.  Then my daughter Linda and I will do the cover and it should be in print in the very near future.  I know you won't be disappointed!

Here is a really refreshing, wonderful salad for these warm days coming up.  This weekend is going to be really warm.  Try it for your family then.

BUTTER LETTUCE SPRING SALAD

3 heads of butter lettuce
3 to 4 radishes
1 orange cut into segments without the skin
1 grapefruit cut into segments without the skin
1/4 cup olive oil
juice of one orange
salt and pepper

Slice the radishes on a mandoline paper thin.  Tear the lettuce into bite sized pieces.  Cut the orange and grapefruit in half and then cut out the fruit leaving the  membrane so you just have the fruit.

Mix the olive oil oil and salt and pepper.

Toss the lettuce, radishes, and fruit together.  Pour the dressing over all.  Toss gently.

This is great with grilled chicken and roasted potatoes.  Perfect for the hot weekend coming up.

Thanks for stopping in today

Ciao
