It appears that sometimes we forget that we don't need to have a lot of ingredients on hand to be able to whip up a fresh, quick and easy salad. Simple good quality ingredients can be bursting with flavour if you just let them! Trust me, ripe juicy tomatoes diced tossed together with fresh basil, drizzled with olive oil in sprinkled with some sea salt will get you on my side!
How many times have you been making a salad thinking, 'now what else can I put in there?'
Why??
So it looks good? So it looks all colourful and special when you take pictures of your food and people will think it looks like it came from a restaurant!!! Ha ha you're special.
Anyways in celebration of taking pictures of our food, here is what I am eating!
