Ahh, the glamorous life of a fashionista! I just returned from a week away from home, doing presentations in Scandinavia. Sounds wonderful, until you realize that every night after work, we got on a train or a plane, skipped dinner and went to bed late, only to wake up and do it all over again. Lunch was served at 11:15, and tended to be a stand up affair.
After finishing my final presentation in Copenhagen, I opted for a short walk and a quiet seated lunch before heading to the airport. I am a little embarrassed to admit that where I ended up was Hard Rock Café! The real surprise was the delicious salad I had there. It was a light and healthy blend of lettuce, fresh fruit and grilled chicken that they referred to as the “anti Cobb”. Here is our take on this yummy salad:
Indigo Jones’ Anti Cobb Salad:
shredded lettuce
sliced Granny Smith apples
diced mango
sliced avocado
sliced strawberries
orange sections
dried cranberries
diced roasted chicken breast (optional)
Layer the fruit in rows over the shredded lettuce. Toss with balsamic vinaigrette and enjoy!!!
Balsamic Vinaigrette:
Whisk together 2 parts olive oil and 1 part balsamic vinegar. Add salt and pepper to taste.
