(Something seems to be wrong with blogger)
Personally I have never really thought of sardines as
having the "yum" factor, but the following was really
really good.
Craig is a bit of a "Foodie." He can't seem to pick up a food
section of the newspaper or a magazine without reading the
recipes. This months issue of Eating Well magazine has some
really interesting salads. We tried this one last night and I
thought, it would be a great RV meal. Easy, quick to make,
and ingredients that are easy to buy or store.
GREEK Salad with sardines
INGREDIENTS:
- 3 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 2 teaspoons dried oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
- 3 medium tomatoes, cut into large chunks
- 1 large English cucumber, cut into large chunks
- 1 15-ounce can chickpeas, rinsed
- 1/3 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1/4 cup thinly sliced red onion
- 2 tablespoons sliced Kalamata olives
- 2 4-ounce cans sardines with bones, packed in olive oil or water, drained
- Wisk lemon juice, oil, garlic, oregano and pepper in a large bowl until well combined. Add tomatoes, cucumber, chickpeas, feta,onion, and olives. Gently toss to combine. Divide the salad among 4 plates and top with sardines. We divided it into two meal size servings and served with Stella Dora Bread Sticks.

Everything sounds good except the sardines! I know I couldn't stomach them. :(
ReplyDeleteDidn't think I'd like them either, but I notice there were several kinds at the grocery. Low cost from Bumble Bee and higher cost that were imported from Italy. Since the higher price ones were only $3.69 I choses them. They were quite alright. Not fishy at all, and it is said they are very good for you.
