Salads

Hello! I’m excited to be returning to the kitchen after 3 long weeks away! I really missed being able to make and create my own dishes. As we ate alot of heavy meals in America, i decieded to cook small meal portions with lots of salad. 

 There are so many amazing salads out there to use as a base, and you can create them to be your own from there! Here are my two favourite salads that I’ve made this week 🙂
