Kale, Feta and Dill Salad | Bijouxs Little Jewels

Simple, fresh ingredients are what make this salad a bright addition to your table, No.614 Kale, Feta and Dill Salad from the Membership Collection.I know a kale salad, bla-bla, but not this one is anything but boring with its super-fresh lemony kick with salty-creamy feta and bright fresh herbs.

LOVE LEMON & OLIVE OIL

As if I needed another cookbook, this image is just a small representation of my vast cookbook collection. This recipe is from Lemon Love and Olive Oil from Mina Stone. I love the Greek influence in the recipes. The ingredients meld perfect with my SoCal roots. A beautiful book to add to your library.

LACINATO KALE

The kale of choice for this recipe is Italian Lacinato Kale, the chlorophyl-dense dark green leaves are a perfect foil for the fresh lemon, creamy feta cheese and crunch from toasted pumpkin seeds. It also goes by the name Dinosaur Kale due the rough texture of the leaves.

KALE SALAD

Yes, we do need another kale salad, so do not pass on this one. I have adapted this salad from the new Mina Stone cookbook. As you can see this simple salad is bursting with fresh flavor, the perfect weekday lunch or dinner side salad. No boring salads here.

My Everything Salad

My Everything Salad | Bijouxs Little Jewels

My Everything Salad is a delicious antidote to avoid food waste in the kitchen, another Bijouxs Membership Collection.

MY EVERYTHING SALAD

I have been creating endless salads using leftover ingredients in the kitchen fridge for years, hardly thinking of them as a real recipe and hardly photo worthy. I came across this salad, and it struck a cord with me. Many of the ingredients were things I typically have on hand-cooked grains, beets, carrots, green onions, cucumber, and fresh herbs. The only to-get items were the pomegranate seeds and Shishito peppers, made easy via Trader Joe’s.

NO FOOD WASTE

I am working hard on reducing any food waste. If I cook a recipe for the blog I share it with friends and neighbors. I found that freezing large quantities of food, did not work for the solo me. I am constantly moving on to the next thing. So, leftovers in my fridge are constantly reimagined into something, interesting or not so interesting.

 

BEAUTIFUL FOOD BY DESIGN

Again, I go back to my Bijouxs basic mantra ‘“the everyday beauty all around us, right here in our kitchens.” I think even the rag-tag kitchen stragglers can be made into something healthy and beautiful-avoiding any waste.

My Everything Salad is another Little Jewel from the Bijouxs Membership Collection.
