SALAD! (The way SpongeBob says it)

My mom and I’ve been making this delicious salads.

Iceberg lettuce Blueberries Strawberries Apples if you feel like it. Green onions Salad topping - raisins, cranberries, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, walnuts, pecans… Blue cheese crumbles Wontons Raspberry vinaigrette dressing!

I know a lot of people don’t like blue cheese crumble, so you don’t have to put that in. But it just gives you the right amount of salty with the sweet, same with the nuts. This is one of our favorite salads and we’ve been eating it all summer long at least once a week.

I'll have extra salt in my soup please.

All the salt.

In fact, leave the shaker.

What’s a super salad?

Also, what music is everyone listening to lately?

Mah Moroccan Chicken Salad

Small greens (variety of baby lettuce leaves, including oakleaf, butterhead, mesclun, baby spinach leaves)

Continental cucumber

Globe Tomatoes

White button mushrooms

Red capsicum (aka red bell pepper - mild type)

Streaky bacon

Chicken breast fillet

Sliced bread for croutons (optional) (toasted then chopped into small-ish sized croutons)

Olive oil

Salt, black pepper

Balsamic vinegar

Moroccan Seasoning (I use store bought, but could make your own )

Cut chicken into slices/strips. Thin slice 4~5mm (1/8 ~ 2/8 inch-ish). Put in mixing bowl, add olive oil to coat, sprinkle on moroccan spice mix, mix, coating chicken pieces in olive oil & spices.

Splash of olive oil in a good sized fry pan

Fry bacon in strips, rendering down the fat to some extent, crispy, remove from pan, cut into small strips when cooled (1.5 inch x 0.5 inch-ish)

Add more olive oil, fry chicken pieces in bacon fat and olive oil until cooked but still juicy. Some crunch on the outside from spices is good, but don't over cook.

Remove chicken to cool

Put the baby greens in a large bowl

Slice tomatoes along vertical axis into thin-ish wedges. Half tomato > then quarter > then cut quarter into 3 or 4 wedges (12+ wedges all up). Toss onto greens.

Slice capsicum into vertical strips, 4~5 mm (1/8 inch) thick. Toss onto greens.

Cut button mushrooms into wedges: same method as applied to tomatoes. Toss onto greens.

Cut continental cucumber into 8 cm (3 inch) pieces, then cut into wedges (half > quarter > eighths). Then cut wedges into 2.5 cm-ish (1 inch) lengths. Toss onto greens.

Drizzle olive oil and splash some balsamic onto the veges, then stir/toss to mix through.

Toss bacon, bacon oil/juices from pan (cooled) and chicken onto the salad mix, stir through.

Add croutons (optional) on top. Stir, serve on plate or bowl, gobble up. Yum.

(Can add small tasty/cheddar cheese cubes as an option, to taste.)

*No Moroccans were harmed in the making of this recipe.

Can I see the specials board please?
