Welcome to our Step into Summer event! Jennifer and I have some wonderful things lined up for you to help you get ready for summer. Make sure you visit Jennifer at Eighty MPH Mom daily to see what she has in store for you too. Many days we will be reviewing and giving away the same item on both blogs – that is two chances for you to win!
I have always liked salads. They’re good for you and a perfect snack for the summertime {or anytime for that matter}. Unfortunately for me {and my health} I probably don’t eat as much of it as I should. That’s all going to change though. I have made a pact with myself to eat better, to eat healthier. I will be doing away with all the things I used to eat and I will try my best to include a vegetable and salad with every meal.
Now some of you hear salad and you probably think boring old lettuce and dressing. Well, there are so many more ways to eat salad than you can probably imagine. Just the salad dressing varieties along are almost endless.
The Wish-Bone website offers a huge variety of different salad recipes for every taste bud out there. The Chopped Fiesta Garden Salad caught my eye and I’d love to share it with you. It looks delicious!

The wonderful people at Wish-Bone sent me a gift bag full of salad goodies including a Tyler Florence signed cookbook, salad tongs, a salad container, an apron and a couple bottles of Wish-Bone salad dressing. I have to say I truely adore my little kit, especially the salad tongs. Can you believe I have never owned a set? Crazy, right? The cookbook has some wonderful recipes in it too! I used the Wish-Bone Italian Dressing in my signature pasta salad and it turned out divine!
Here is an interesting fact: According to Wish-Bone, the oils like those in Wish-Bone salad dressings help your body better absorb vitamins A & E, versus a salad without dressing. Good to know!
One lucky duck will win a gift bag full of salad goodies just like the one I received!
