Summer strawberry salad

A delicous mixer of ripe strawberries, fresh basil, and the delightful crunch of romaine lettuce.

This is one of my favorite salads because I love the sweetness of the strawberries and the fresh peppery flavor of the basil. As you can see this salad has many toppings which means many flavors just waiting to burst as you take a bite! As you eat you’ll taste summer in every bite no matter how the weather is!

Strawberry selecting

Make sure the strawberries you choose are very ripe and deep red. If you can do get organic strawberries.

Purslane flowers

I used the wild flowers called purslane on this salad and they can be left out or found in the wild. Before picking make sure you look up a pic of what purslane looks like so you dont pick the wrong plant!
