Overheard.

Last night at dinner I tried out a new Apple and Carrot Salad Recipe.

William: "This is the food police, you are under arrest, this is the worst salad I have ever tasted!"
Now imagine the worst face an 8 year old can make when it comes to food!

The recipe for the salad, which is delicious and a nice change for the summer:

1 large apple(s), red, cored, thinly sliced and then cut into matchsticks
1 large apple(s), green, cored, thinly sliced and then cut into matchsticks
1 1/2 Tbsp fresh lemon juice, or less to taste
3 cup(s) carrot(s), cut into matchsticks (many stores sell these precut)
1/4 cup(s) chives, chopped
1 Tbsp olive oil
1 tsp sugar
1/2 tsp table salt
1/4 tsp black pepper, or more to taste
2 oz feta cheese, French-variety suggested, crumbled
Instructions:
Place apples in a large bowl and toss with lemon juice. Add carrots, chives, oil, sugar, salt, pepper and cheese; toss to mix thoroughly. Yields about 3/4 cup per serving. The salad is Weight Watchers and is 2 points for 3/4 cup.
