A couple of weeks ago, we had planned a Holi potluck for breakfast with our cooking club group. Unfortunately, it got postponed but by then I had already ordered ingredients for some savory muffins. So what to do with so much at hand? I decided to make a few salads/ roasted herb tomatoes and have a healthy week.
I am not a salad person but slowly and gradually I am exploring what I have and what I can do. I just threw in the ingredients at hand with a liberal dash of olive oil and have a winner at hand. V also loved it.
It’s a cold salad, so all you need is a little steamed broccoli and everything else can be put together in a jiffy for a great taste. I used apple cider vinegar as it was in the pantry, else balsamic vinegar will go very well with it.
