Summer Salad

I really enjoy a good salad in the summer, they just taste better than any other time of the year. Tonight I threw together a salad with seasonal berries, the fruits of my labor after picking blueberries yesterday.

To make this salad I cut up a head of romaine lettuce, a handful of blueberries, a handful of strawberries quartered, a handful of dried cranberries and sprinkled sunflower seeds on top for crunch. (Any nut would be good, a slivered almond...yummo)!

For dressing I used Annie's Poppyseed dressing (Lite). If you have never had poppyseed dressing it is slightly sweet and goes perfect with salad that have fruit in them. I can make my own poppyseed dressing but it always goes bad before I finish it, this way was easier. Having a busy little boy on my hands makes cooking already hard so easy is good!

Hope you try this salad & enjoy!
