The Oddest Salad Ingredient

Now that we’re into strawberry season and the U-picks are opening up, we’re all enjoying the sweet little berries.

But I had some strange reactions last week when I mentioned that I like strawberries in my salads. It’s something my wife Karen and I just discovered this year, and we really like it.

However one caller to the morning show suggested that I try watermelon chunks in my salad. As it turns out, just the night before I had my first salad with chunks of watermelon and it was soooo good and refreshing! Now I’m craving some more!

We’ve also been experimenting with cucumber, watermelon and spicy chilis. That’s right- hot chilies along with the cool watermelon. It shouldn’t work but it does. Give it a try and let me know if you like it.

What strange things do you toss in your salad?
