BLACKBERRIES AND GREENS SALAD

Happy Monday Friends! Today I am back with a quick, healthy salad for you all. I hate to see summer slipping away so fast, don’t you?

We love summer and especially like eating dinners outside on the deck with the family on the days when there is a gentle breeze. There are only a couple more weeks, and we will have to move in and cook hot soups to keep us warm. To celebrate summer until it’s gone, I made this excellent Blackberries and greens salad. It’s a fresh, light summer salad, and the best thing is that it didn’t take more than 5-10 minutes to make.

Fresh blackberries are out on the shelves, and we put a few boxes in our basket while grocery shopping this weekend. I love all summer fruits, but blackberries are on the top of my list for sure. They are not only delicious but so healthy, too. I used green salad mix as well as arugula to toss together this colorful salad.

Eating healthy and keeping healthy habits is great. Since my hub changed his lifestyle and diet, we as a family eat much healthier in general but I still think that we don’t eat enough greens.
