The First of the Season


We did our first grilled clams of the season the other week and boy were they delicious!

I served our grilled clams with grilled corn on the cob and the most delicious salad using farmers market mixed greens - arugula, baby chard, and other assorted greens.

The salad is what I really want to write about here because it was so delectable.

Mixed green, potato and berries salad
This is all based on how much salad mix you use.

Mixed greens, if you can find some baby chard to put in, do it!
1/4-1/2 cup blueberries
1/4-1/2 cup raspberries
baby potatoes - purple preferably for the color, steamed in the microwave until just soft and cut in half.

Toss the greens, fruit and potatoes with olive oil, balsamic vinegar, fresh black pepper and a drizzle of agave. You want the potatoes to still be warm so the greens start to get a little soft.

DELICIOUS!!

THIS! Is my type of meal, I could eat this way every night.

Isn't that so pretty and colorful? the potatoes, the berries and then the red of the chard - GORGEOUS!!

well hello little clams! I bet you're going to be delicious!
