Here in the UK we’ve had several days of constant sunshine (it’s hard to believe I know - but we have honestly). Over these particular hot and sunny days the supermarkets have been packed out with people buying their salad and BBQ ingredients such as bags upon bags of tomatoes, lettuces and cucumbers, but how much will they actually eat and how much will they throw away should the sun go in?

I couldn’t believe my eyes when people were snatching at the lettuces as if there was no tomorrow, but I can guarantee that half of those people have just gone along with the mad rush for them and will now leaving them to rot in their fridge as they probably thought it’s a nice sunny day and I shall start my diet today.

There are so many interesting salads you can now make at home. What about Italian tomato, basil and mozzarella salad? or perhaps a European chicken salad? Just by adding a couple more ingredients such as fresh basil or a tasty dressing, your boring salad can be transformed into a great dinner which is certainly cheaper and tastier than buying a ready made salad.
