Loaded Summer Salad
I’m on a veggie kick because it’s the season of delicious in-season veggies and this loaded summer salad is perfect! I sometimes base my meals for the week based on the produce that’s on sale at the grocery store. Is this weird or do you do this too? I really love this dressing and combination of all the veggies I put in it. Olives, in my opinion make a salad soooo good. If you’re looking for other salads on my website you could try this one, or this one.

Notes
With small kids, they hardly ever eat a real mixed salad. Instead we put pieces of the salad on the plate and let them dip their deconstructed salad in the dressing. I like salads because everyone can pick and choose what they like to customize their perfect salad.
