I have really been enjoying my venture in being vegetarian.
I know I could never be vegan; although I wish I could, but I could never give up cheese and ice cream.
Quite simply... they make me happy!

In planning meals, I continually assess the leftovers as well as what is in the fridge and pantry.
I despise wasting food... and if it is just a heel of bread, I will cut it up and use it as croutons or breadcrumbs.

So the other night I looked in the fridge and put this salad together and it has ended up being one of the best salads I have ever eaten.
The combination of ingredients may sound strange but they worked!

I will simply list the ingredients and from there you can build your own salad.

Arugula (I LOVE it!)
Strawberries
Goldendew Melon
Oven-roasted beets (leftover from the night before)
Red Onion
A sprinkling of Pear-Infused Balsamic Vinegar
A drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil
