Ours is going by pretty fast. Daughter\/family home for visit for Memorial day weekend, then the next weekend son from Austin came with family\/friends, then next weekend daughter back for class reunion, then next weekend picked up two of the grandsons from Austin and this weekend they will swing back through The Woodlands on their way back from beach trip. They have been my guinea pigs for the past few weeks with a few new recipes I&#8217;ve been wanting to try out on someone.<\/p>\n<p>Summer is the perfect season for any kind of fresh, crisp, green or pasta salad and who isn&#8217;t looking for something healthy and light for lunch\/dinner. Add some roasted or grilled chicken or seafood to this salad and you have a very light, not filling dinner.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m sure you will go (or have already been) to quite a few get-togethers this summer and if you are lucky enough to be asked to bring something (yes, lucky) then you can try out some of your new recipes. I say lucky because I love being able to take something new and exciting to a party<\/p>\n<p>For my salad which was served with bbq chicken I used baby arugula, butter lettuce some avocado, shaved parmesan and fresh blackberries. I loved the nuttiest that this dressing gives to the salad.<\/p>\n<p>Give this a try and if you do, let me know if you change up the fruits or other ingredients. (Add note to &#8220;comment&#8221; section which is at the bottom of the recipe.)<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #800000;\"><strong>BLAST FROM THE PAST:<\/strong> <\/span>I posted this <a
