A Salad and the winner of the giveaway ..




How was your weekend? Mine was really good with a well spent two day trip with folks and family. Couldn't have been much better considering the amount of work that lies ahead of me. In two months, I will be holding a solo exhibition of my painted textiles and another one following that. So am all excited for it and I know it is going to be tough days ahead building up my collection.

When I got back from the trip the Mr. and I wanted something light mealwise. And this was how this salad was born.This salad is something I love for its intense colour and the different flavours. Feta in it makes it all the more desirable. While I give you the recipe, thank you for all the blog anniversary wishes. And the winner is announced at the end of this post.



There is no exact recipe. It is what I had in hand that went into this. This salad made into this space for the vibrancy and the flavour which I highly recommend. Sometimes experiments work real well. This salad has diced green, yellow and red bell peppers, finely chopped parsley, chopped cucumbers,black and green olives, sprouts and shredded purple cabbage and not to forget crumbled feta cheese.

The dressing that I used is a mix of olive oil, cider vinegar, salt, white peper, a pinch of chilli powder,minced fresh parsley and olives. The above is shook vigorously until well blended and refrigerated until use. All the above yields a flavourful, colourful salad with texture as well. The zesty dressing adds to the flavour. I always admire a beautifully done salad and hence tried my best to make one for myself too. And I guess I did justice to it???



Coming to the winner of the giveaway, it is is Simran. Do send me a mail Simran with your mailing address so that I can send you the parcel.
