summer supper salads

hihi everyone, i finally got a picture of one of our summer supper salads. this one has red and green loose leaf lettuces, red and yellow sweet peppers, red tomato, shaved vidalia onions, chopped roast beef, cheese mini ravioli, shredded extra sharp cheddar cheese, california olives, and a tiny bit of purple cabbage shaved
it's got an italian dressing.
it tastes every single bit as good as it looks

we vary what we put in them...... hard boiled eggs, chicken, shrimp..... turkey and sometimes vary the pasta but our favorite is usually ravioli.
take a walk down the veggie aisle at the super market and take the most colorful brightest veggies ( we grow the lettuces and veggies here normally but this year only the lettuces are doing well) i like blanched snow peas too on them
and blanched broccoli ....... really just aim for a good mix of deep bright colors....
it's filling too
we don't put crotons as a rule but you can, they are easy to make out of leftover stale breads

now i am typing this friday night..... it's hot again although the weather report is for cooler weather due to the nightmare storm we had last night (that would be thursday night)

i am so worried about fawn
and i am worried about fawn on tuesday morning going to hellerstown with no ac in the van
please give some good thoughts to us
ok this is going to post tomorrow morning
i hope to be sleeping in

take good care everyone
