Fabulous Friday: 10 Cool Summer Salads

10-Cool-Summer-Salads

 

I don’t know about you but once it starts getting hot outside I don’t like turning on the oven or even cooking on the stove for that matter. And even though it’s not quite summer on the calendar yet it was 89° here yesterday. THAT is summer to me.

So I thought I’d track down some delicious looking summer salads to make. Enjoy!
