Cucumber, Tomato and Baby Spinach Leaf Salad
Cucumber Tomato and Baby Spinach Leaf Salad
A few days ago I was needing a simple and easy dinner to prepare that didn’t take very long.
So basically baked fish sticks and a salad was my answer. I found the frozen fish sticks in my freezer from when I thought my grandsons were going to visit but the trip fell through. So here was my chance to use them.
I put the frozen fish sticks in the oven and started work on the salad. It was pretty simple and easy to chop and mix. I love my Pampered Chef Salad Chopper by the way!
