We had a wonderful morning at the Ranch last Saturday, learning to make delicious salads.

Chef Nancy introduced us to a variety of tasty salads for various occasions. For example, a tabouli salad with feta cheese would be perfect for a summer luncheon entrée. A side salad of marinated black-eyed peas and sun-dried tomatoes would go with any entree. We also learned the secrets to creating family pleasing homemade salad dressings.

Nancy also shared this important information about purchasing produce and choosing oils.

Then came a tour of the beautiful garden at the Ranch.

Last, we had a yummy lunch of salads, bread, and dessert.
