CARAMELIZED HEARTS of PALM SALAD with LEMON PESTO VINAIGRETTE on RIBBONED ZUCCHINI πŸ“· FOOD PHOTO SHOOT πŸ“·

in #food β€’ 8 years ago

Steemians!, How about some salad on this fine Thursday?!

A little balance is good. Yes, yes I know I am way over due on a chocolate post, but don't worry, chocolate will be coming soon.

Not quite yet, but I am almost at 20,000 steem power! Thank you to all that have contributed.

For the moment, we're going to focus on some salad.

If you're new to my posts, you'll quickly notice that I like to tell my stories through my photos. I am not a gifted writer, in fact I do not like to write. I have also discovered that here on this strange experiment we call steemit, the less words I use, the better my posts perform.

Someday, I may just post some pics with zero words and see what happens.

Ok, about this salad, it's really a random combo of ingredients that just sounded good in my head.

It is summer here, so we have an abundance of blackberries, so I just have to use them.

I was actually out of lettuce which inspired me to use ribboned zucchini, it was great!!

RECIPE available upon request

I hope you enjoyed the photos?

        Looks so good! I'm not much of a salad eater most days, but I was kind of forced to, yesterday. My stomach was really upset, so I just threw some veggies and salad together and added couscous for filling (my boyfriend is afraid he won't get enough otherwise). It was edible, but it mainly gave me ideas how to improve on it next time :-)

            Definitely! I love that you added blackberries. I grow them in my garden, so it's a great idea for summer times :-)

                                I often wonder at people who say they 'don't like' salads, as I think perhaps they just lack imagination, because who wouldn't find a salad like this appealing???

                                  Your posts are so great. I had never heard of this kind of salad. You make it all into art. It is nuts.

                                  Died LOL when you said a couple things there....

                                      I believe you, I laughed at that part --- and just above it where you said you don't like writing lol.

                                      You really are doing a nice job. I wish your food lived closer to me

                                                The ribbon zucchini is a great idea! I think too many salads just start with lettuce without a second thought. It's nice to see those blackberries -- they are really the sign of summer. Where do you get your Hearts of Palm? Is that a Chilean standard?

                                                  Yes, the hearts of palm are a Chilean standard, no question. THE standard salad served at every 'once' ( aun-se), which is tea time, consists of tomato, avocado and hearts of palm, the trio. And it is always covered in oil and vinigerette. There is heavy european influence here, by far the most is German. But one English thing that stuck is tea time.

                                                    Good on getting Chile into your cooking, even if they are not open to new foods! Maybe tea time is why you make so many cookies -- or else it's having brothers, lol!
