Summer’s here, no time to waste! It’s salad season – better yet, it’s speedy salad season, so you spend less time in the kitchen, and more time soaking up the rays. It means tomatoes and capsicums, basil and mint, cool watermelon and even colder noodles; perhaps some poached chicken or cooked prawns too. Throw them in, toss them around – that’s your summer salad done. Easy. Plus, many of these speedy, summery salads are also perfect to make for Christmas lunch.
