Dear Summer,  Please don’t leave. Love, Lizzy

If you never leave summer, I can enjoy this juicy, sweet nectarine and wild rice salad ALL OF THE TIME.  Instead, fleeting summer, pretty soon the ground will be frozen solid and the perfectly drippy nectarines along with the sweetest cherry tomatoes you have ever tasted will be gone. Which means I must cram this salad in as often as I can.

So inter-web friends, are you ready to make the best summer salad over and over again until there are no nectarines and tomatoes left?  Lets give it a go!

slowly melting into a giant puddle…. 

Which is why blender soups may just be the best invention ever.  When you can just throw a whole bunch of green, savoury things and herbs into a blender and it comes out delicious- what kind of magic is this?

So when it is 35 degrees Celsius outside and you are too hot to move this is what you make.  A cold blender soup that is jammed with greens and herbs.

Tasty, refreshing, easy and nutrition packed!
