Simple Summer Salad

I'm going to try this blog thing one more time. To kick it off, here is the recipe for my favorite summer salad. It is quick, easy, chock full of healthy stuff like antioxidants and vitamins, and most importantly, it is delicious. Happy eating!

Ingredients:
-Spinach
-Romaine lettuce
-Blueberries
-Lightly salted roasted almonds (I like Trader Joe's 50% Less Salt Dry Roasted and Salted Almonds)
-Freshly grated parmesan
-Extra virgin olive oil
-Balsamic vinegar
-Kosher sea salt
-Freshly ground black pepper

There are no measurements to this recipe, just add what you like. Mix handfuls of spinach, romaine, and blueberries. Sprinkle with chopped almonds, grated Parm, salt, and pepper. Drizzle lightly with olive oil and balsamic.
