Summer

If the weather wasn't hot, I would still be walking around my house in shorts and a tank top...because the fans/dehumidifier are still here. For another two days. We don't want mold to grow. We really don't. Someone please remind me why God invented mold? It is a nuisance. So is the word nuisance. It took me a few tries to figure out how to spell it. Okay, okay, I used spellcheck. So what?! That's just another tool in this 21st century world I'm living in....

Oh, I'm sorry. That wasn't the point of this post. The point of this post is to give you a delicious idea for a summer lunch that your husband/boyfriend/brother probably won't want to eat. (Sorry to the husband/boyfriend/brothers that may or may not be reading...)

But YOU will want to eat this! I think.

I present to you.....

Summer Salad Wraps

Last summer my sister in law (the other Beth) invented this delicious recipe. Then she shared it with me. And I hope she doesn't mind that I'm sharing it with you!

This treat begins with a tortilla and a bed of fresh lettuce. Then you add a few sliced strawberries, some avocado, and a little bit of red onion. On top of the fruit and veggies, spread out a little bit of chicken that has been marinated in a raspberry vinaigrette and then cooked however you like...baked, grilled, etc. After the chicken, sprinkle some Gorgonzola cheese (oh, yum!) and then, to top it all off, a bit of candied pecans.

When you roll this all together, it makes for the most balanced and deliciously flavorful treat! I've had it for lunch two days in a row!

Thinking about Gorgonzola cheese made me realize I'm glad God invented mold after all....
