If it were up to me, I would have salad every night for dinner.
It doesn’t happen often since my kids don’t like salad.
So when I ship them off to friends houses, I always make a nice salad full of fruit, and some protein.
[rss-cut]
Strawberries and blueberries are both in season right now, take advantage of it and make your salad colorful.
Oh, and don’t grab a box of pre-made crusty, break your teeth croutons, just open your freezer and pull out the Eggo® Waffles.
Yep, this is another recipe I developed for my duties as an Chief Waffle Officer.
Thick and Fluffy Eggo® Waffles, cut up, seasoned and pan fried in a bit of butter and extra virgin olive oil.
Uh, huh. I turned a waffle into a crouton. It was kinda a no-brainer.
