Hi Hive friends! It's been a long time since I've been on the internet, I just felt like I needed some time off. But that didn't stop me from gardening, cooking and baking.
As our days were quite hot this summer I had a refreshing salad on the menu most of my days.

I'm really grateful this year for the beautiful pink oyster mushrooms that I can use in the recipes.

I think it must be like gold to have those items in your garden. This is a beautiful way to use these things especially those pink oysters. Last year I had them and saw them for the first time in my life. In fact I'm going to the little one day a week market to see my mushroom vendor and hope they have some pink oysters.

This would be a great salad in a vegan restaurant. I would definitely order this.

Welcome back! I missed your recipes. Thank you for sharing yet again! Wow, this salad looks so nice and healthy. I really want some now. My garden is transitioning from winter to summer, so there are some nice new salad greens but also some older leaves which is not so nice for salads. Happy cooking!

Thank you @fermentedphil! Happy to be back and see you all again! 🙈😃
Most of the greens this year here sadly got burned because of the drought. Looks like I need to start growing salad in winter too 😃
Well, the world is changing and the weather is changing...
Older greens are still great for cooking💪 I'm sure you will come up with something out of the box again 😃

start growing salad in winter too

My absolute favorite is chickweed. It grows in the winter here where I am living and it is sweet and nice. I just love the flavor and to use it in salads. Best of luck! I am looking forward to seeing your posts on the winter salad creations.

I love chickweed in the salad too! So useful an nutritious!
I will plant some endive for the winter, it's tough enough to survive the snow.

Those winter snows are always the worst, at least I can imagine myself. We never have that problem as we have very mild weather year round. Best of luck!

Oh yum! I don't know when I last ate oyster mushrooms. They are my favourite! Did you forage for those? Or plant them @blackberryskunk. Nice to see you here with your sensational dish. I've also been away

I've planted those. A friend brought be spores already ready to plant into straw or wood. I used straw at it seems easer, but I definitely wish to try it with wood too!
Sometimes we need time off the internet and that's totally cool actually! 😉
