I was surprised how rich and multi-layered this salad tasted. It has several of my favorite ingredients. The avocado is a must. It is the foundation if the richness in this salad. I found the dried cranberries a little too sweet. I should look for more raw flavor ones next time. I would also like to try this salad with blue cheese.

Special Ingredients:
- beets
- arugula
- avocado
- walnuts
- cheese, goat or blue
- dried cranberries or cherries

Will I make it again? - yes. Refreshing way to use beets and a good filling salad.

Some of the most delicious fish tacos I've ever had and they are home-made which makes them taste even more real. Light summer dish full of multi-layered flavors. I changed proportions in the salsa (less onion) and used canned mangoes so looking forward to trying with the fresh mangoes next time. And should not forget to season the fish.

Special Ingredients:
- radishes
- mango
- chipotles in adobo sauce

Will I make it again? - yes, definitely
