This is visually stunning & so full of flavor.  If you’re not a fan of flavored mango, use plain or other dried fruit such as pineapple, apricot, cherries & cranberries.  Try it w/ honeydew melons too.  Share your photos on Hungry Harvest social media.

Summer Picnic Salad Classic :: Chef Mark Cleveland @ Hungry Harvest ::




Difficulty: Easy
Time: 15 mins
Servings: 4 to 6

We’ve vitalized this summer classic w/ raw kale & fresh orange.  Our Harvest version is simple & easy.  Spot on flavor, pantry ingredients.  Embellish w/ fruit, veggies, fresh & dried herbs, seeds & nuts, Dijon, hot sauce as you wish.

Amount
Measure
Ingredient
Prep Method
1
Medium
Red onion
Pie slice
1-2
Medium
Tomatoes
Pie slice
1
Large
Cucumber
Peeled, seeded, sliced
1-2
Large
Kale leaves
Julienne
1
Medium
Navel orange
Juice & zest

Prep out the vegetables.  I love the pie slice for both the onions & tomatoes.  


Great texture, mouth feel & presentation.  But cut them as you enjoy.  Use onions, cucumbers, tomatoes & any other summer picnic vegetables y’all favor.

3
Tablespoons
Evoo

2
Tablespoons
Favorite vinegar
Cider, red wine, champagne, sherry, etc
1
Teaspoon
Sea salt
Flavored blends rule
1-2
Tablespoons
Honey
Agave, sugar, fruit molasses, etc
1
Clove
Garlic
Opt, minced
1/2
Teaspoon
Favorite HOT sauce
Opt
1-2
Tablespoons
Fresh herbs
Opt


In the bowl you’ll serve the salad, combine the dressing ingredients.  A little bit of sweetness really sings the flavors of summer.  I love the orange juice & zest combined w/ a whisper of honey. 


This salad comes together in minutes.  Toss and let sit for a bit to allow the juices to flow and macerate.  Serve with fresh herb garnishes if you’d like. 


This salad is a superb picnic side, but also works as a topping for dogs & along side everything from the BBQ.  Have we talked grilled wild caught salmon?  Oh yeah!
