Want a fun way to teach children about putting salads together? I love this salad building game! It teaches you about ingredients to pair together and gives you ideas for creative recipes to make your meals healthier!

Today I’m sharing my favorite salad recipe with you!  This is an adaptation of a recipe we learned in Morocco on a Real Food Adventure by Intrepid Travel.  It’s easy to make, healthy, and a delicious appetizer or side dish.   Enjoy!

Chop and prepare the salad ingredients below, then place them into a bowl.

• 1 pint of cherry tomatoes, halved
• 1-2 cucumbers, diced
• 1 red bell pepper, diced
• 1 yellow bell pepper, diced
• 1/8 cup red onion (or green onion if you prefer)
• 1 small avocado, diced (optional)
• 1-2 sprigs of cilantro (optional)

Combine the following dressing ingredients in a separate bowl.  

• 1/4 cup tarragon vinegar (or white vinegar)
• 1/4 cup Kasandrinos olive oil
• Juice of 1 fresh lemon or lime
• Dash of pepper
• 1 Teaspoon Himalayan Salt
• 1/2 Teaspoon Ground Cumin

I’d recommend tasting the dressing and adjusting proportions based on your palate.  I go heavier on the cumin because I love it!  Drizzle the dressing over the salad and mix well.  Chill for 30 minutes, then devour!
