I was in the mood for salad tonight. I always make the dressing each time from scratch as the first step - chopped garlic (lots of it!), balsalmic vinegar, and extra virgin olive oil. Next, I added Romaine, carrot ribbons (made with a peeler), cucumber slices, avocado chunks, and tomato. Toss lightly. Add grated Romano cheese. Toss and serve. Pass the pepper grinder over it a few times. To die for. It's so simple. The garlic and the Romano are the secrets to transforming every day salad with oil and vinegar to a world class salad.

I spent most of the day at my mom and step-dad's with my family, so I ate three meals that each could qualify as dinner. First, for an early lunch we had spaghetti with shrimp and an alfredo sauce. For an early dinner we had green chile enchiladas. And for a late dinner we had posole with menudo (tripe) that was leftover from yesterday. I'm stuffed.:eek::biggrin1:
