blackberry, cucumber and mint salad
In effort to eat more of this GIANT pile of spinach, I made an outstanding fruit salad that can go on top of any salad greens you have haunting you from your fridge.
1 small carton of blackberries
1 medium cucumber
2 tsp chopped fresh mint
1 Tbsp of any variety of fruit vinaigrette salad dressing ( I used strawberry!)
Wash, and peel off most of the waxy skin of the cucumber, then quarter it and slice it into nice 1/2 inch chunks. Put in a bowl, wash the blackberries and add to the bowl. Finely chop the mint and add to the bowl, finally drizzle the vinaigrette and mix. Plunk this on a bowl of fresh spinach and call it a night because this is almost too easy.
