My summer vacations came to an end. Today I go back to work. It is time to reopen my organizer and starting make plans and scheduling tasks along the week. It is time to choose a book to be read on public transportation. Preferably a novel that makes me dream. It is time to look more closely at the wardrobe. It is time to return to the working day routine. It still seems like it was yesterday I went on vacation. Time really flies, that is why it so precious.
Today's recipe has a bit of nostalgia because some of its ingredients make me remember the recent holidays. It uses wild blackberries that were picked on a very hot day I spent in Santarém and the bresaola that I brought from my trip to Italy.
Ingredients:
mixed greens (lettuce, arugula and lamb's lettuce)
4 tablespoons wild blackberries
2 fresh goat cheeses
6 slices of bresaola or dry-cured ham
salt and pepper
balsamic vinegar to taste
olive oil to taste
1. Cut the fresh goat cheeses into small cubes.
2. In a bowl put the mixture of greens. Add the cheese, slices of bresaola and the blackberries.
3. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Sprinkle with olive oil and some balsamic vinegar. Stir and serve.
This salad turned out to be very nice. The blackberries combine very well with the cheese and the bresaola's saltiness.
A salad with a zest of vacation that can also help balance the excesses committed at the table on these days of August. It is time to start thinking about the diet! ;)
To all those who return today or have already returned to work, wishes for a great day!
