It's time for some (spinach) link loving.
Give Mom the gift of (edible) flowers this year.
Refresh after a long weekend and celebrate Mom this Sunday with a crisp, colorful, spinach salad embellished with budding garden gems also known as edible flowers. Indulge in purple violet goodness with this Blood Orange Spinach Salad sprinkled with violets from Healthy Green Kitchen (above).
Edible flowers don't always have big taste, though they often do, and they always have big color, vibrancy and are chock full of nutrients! They are the reproductive organs of plants afterall...where plant life all begins.
Add some sweet and spice to Mom's special day with this beautiful spicy carrot quinoa and spinach salad with coconut lime dressing from The Year in Food.
Make use of your garden and tantalize both your eyes and taste buds with this Garden-to-Table Spinach Salad from Eat to Thrive.
The sunflower sprouts and arugula flowers in this Spring Salad from Vegan and Demanding will pleasantly surprise your taste buds and introduce your garden to your plate this spring. Mmm.
So stop eating salad between the lines. The next time you decide to eat salad, get your crayola on and add some dandelion yellow, violet purple, or rose pinks. The next time you decide to buy Mom flowers...put a spinach salad under it.
Happy Mother's Day!
