Even though I'm not an olive fan either, I have to side with your Mom on this one. I too love salads with lots of different flavors and textures. This one is very pretty!

Such a pretty salad. I need to experiment more with using blueberries in savory dishes.

Me gusta la ensalada de su madre. Although I'm not a big fan of blue cheese dressing either. It looks like it could be a meal by itself.

For me, it's the styling that makes food blogging tedious. Not so much the cooking and the photographing. But what the heck, if the dish itself is photogenic - like this salad - let's do away with the frills. I say, bring on the food porn!

Your mom really sold me on that salad- not really! It's very pretty, but that combination does not float my boat. One of my favorite salads had candied walnuts, strawberries, blue cheese, celery and a maple vinaigrette over mixed greens. I'm also fond of apples and grapes on there too.

Ooh, now I want a salad!

Hahaha, I can hardly believe that the pretty above-featured summer salad is really my creation! It was so simple and fun to make, and the ingredients are colorful, versatile, nutritious, inviting and delicious. While it is true that I thoroughly enjoyed creating this salad, I enjoyed eating it even more (bleu cheese dressing and all)! More importantly, I didn't have to stay in the kitchen that long, and I didn't burn anything!! As Memoria suggests, add whatever ingredients that float your boat! Have fun and bon appetit!
