Nebraska

We spent 10 days in rural Nebraska, where my husband grew up and my inlaws still live. It's SO different than Vermont, but equally beautiful and unique in it's own right. Olive loved all the cattle, corn fields and of course sending time with her 'braska family! :)

It was a challenge to eat cleanly while there because Nebraskan's love their meat and fast food, but I managed to create some tasty, healthy dishes for the family despite! ;-)

Simple Lentil Salad (pictured above):

Ingredients include:

French lentils, cooked

Carrots, celery, onions- finely chopped

Cherry tomatoes, quartered

A healthy drizzle of garlic infused Olive Oil

A healthy splash of balsamic vinegar or fresh lemon juice

Sea Salt and Pepper to taste

Optional additions: goat cheese and/or avocado

Serve as is or over fresh garden lettuce!
