Friday May 22nd 2020

Today is Blog Friday!!
Doesn’t that sound funny??
Today we will be making a salad. I know for some you will think...That isn’t hard?! Well it is, and it is also really fun to make a salad, especially one that you have made with all your own grown vegetables! Then I will share a very yummy salad dressing that Mrs. Montagano taught me how to make.

Today’s salad will have these things from my garden:

Spinach: has lots of iron..good for your blood
Kale: lots of vitamin c and vitamin k..good for your heart
Mesclun greens: high in vitaminA which is good for eyes
Beet tops: good source of fiber and lots of other excellent things
Celery: good for your digestion
Chives: helps you sleep and keeps your bones strong.

Then I will add tomatoes and cucumbers that are from a store, because they haven’t produced any fruit just yet.

The salad dressing is called:

 Tahini Dressing
Put all the ingredients into a jar and shake:
2 tbsp tahini (this is a sesame seed paste)
One clove of garlic
2 tbsp of olive oil
2 tbsp of apple cider vinegar (balsamic or other viegars work too)
Pinch of salt and a pinch of pepper
A bit of water so that it is a little bit less thick
Really yummy!!!

Today after you watch the video I want you to pretend you are making a yummy salad for yourself.
Draw a giant bowl.
Then cut out things you would want to put into your salad…
Use a magazine or use old advertisements.
Create a salad from your imagination…it can have anything EDIBLE in it.
Then give it a name that you would want to call this yummy salad.

This weekend as it is a long weekend, please work on trying to finish up your time capsule. When we get back to school together I will want you to bring it in and we will look at it together. So keep all of your pages with you!

With that, I hope you have a great long weekend.
Remember that Monday is a professional day for teachers!
We are all getting ready to have you back at school and need to do some meetings to prepare.

Enjoy the video and I will see you all soon!
