Now that the weather is getting warmer again I have been experimenting with different salad combinations and I have just found the perfect match for this summer.
I never used to be a big fan of olives, however a few weeks ago I tried eating them again and I got to say, I am addicted! They add so much flavor to a salad which caused them to be my favorite ingredient in the entire salad. I can’t wait to create more recipes with olives now that I have truly fallen in love with them.
What are your favorite recipes with olives? I would love to know for some inspiration!
But for now let’s get started with making this delicious salad first!
Ingredients:
- 10 olives
- 1/4 of a cucumber
- 1 apple
- 1 tomato
- 1 carrot
- 4 pickles
- 1/2 cup chickpeas
- 1/2 cup sweet corn
- 1-2 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
Directions:
Start by cutting the cucumber, apple, tomato into cubes and add them to a bowl. Grate the carrot and mix in with the other ingredients in the bowl. Finally add in the olives, chickpeas and sweet corn.
Pour over the balsamic vinegar and mix all the ingredients well so the balsamic vinegar covers all the ingredients.
It’s such a simple but delicious recipe! I have literally been making this salad for lunch almost every day.
I wish you all a beautiful rest of your day and I will talk to you soon.
Much love,
