I just began remodeling The Recipe Finder. My plan is to integrate it with Moms of Faith. I strongly believe that we are called to bring glory to God in EVERYTHING we do...including COOKING! SO, here are some great summer salad recipes. Bon appetite!

Summer Salads

Green vegetables are the food most missing in modern diets. Nutritionally, greens are very high in calcium (120 -190 mg per cup!) They're also high in magnesium, iron, potassium, phosphorous, zinc, and they are a power house for Vitamin A, C, E and K. Believe it or not, they are also crammed high with fiber, folic acid, chlorophyll and many other micro-nutrients and phyto-chemicals. You just can't get any better than this. Take a look at the following two recipes to help move you into a sensational summer!
