Day 27 - Bacon and Brussel Sprout Salad

How am I feeling?  No snow on the ground this morning - sun is shining bright - always helps the mood.
What am I watching?  Jamie - messing around with one of birthday presents that we gave him last night.
What am I reading?  Almost finished with Gabrielle Hamilton.


Yesterday was Jamie's birthday so we planned a bit of a celebration for him.  Cate and I made him a nice dinner.  It was fun being in the kitchen altogether.  Cate is an expert at making risotto so she was in charge of the main course.

Needing a simple first course, I remembered this salad.  I am not a big fan of cooked brussel sprouts but this salad calls for them to be raw.  It is easy and delicious and can be changed up in a variety of ways.  I have added dried cranberries for a bit of sweetness, used my own vinaigrette recipe instead of the  one listed...really - it is just a canvas.

This comes from Pinch of Yum - a really nice blog with great recipes.

Be healthy and safe!
