My Fathers Daughter

So yesterday I was to attend an Easter Pot Luck dinner with some friends. And having no money to go out and buy something for the occasion i was forced to get creative with what i had in my kitchen and I came up with something pretty spectacular.

I Made a Salad that consisted of the following

Chicken from a whole roast Chicken I took home after our Church meal last Thursday

Grapes, Apples, Cashews and Rasins also left over from that meal

The Remainder of almonds I had in the pantry

The remainder of Cous cous I had in the pantry

The remainder of spinach i had in the crispter

and a good amount of apple cider vinegar that belongs to one of my roommates.

So, want an awesome salad recipe?

Varying amounts of the following:

baby spinach

Grapes

Chopped Apples

Raisins

Almonds

Cashews

Cous cous

cubed chicken peices

Apple cider vinegar

I titled this "My Fathers Daughter" because this is the kind of mentality he taught me. "Make due with what you have", he always managed to make some pretty awesome meals by using up what was left in the kitchen, and that was for 6 people! It's a good skill to have, and I'm glad to have it. Now I'm making chicken broth out of the bones from the chicken I used yesterday, also something my father doesn't miss a chance to do. I miss my Dad.

Much love to all.
