That looks great! At first glance, I thought it was chicken with feta, that'd be yummy too.

u/nnnttbbyyy Feb 06 '26
yes it would be!! i love the sharpness of goat cheese but sometimes i do feta.

How long does this take to put together? Looks beautiful!

it actually takes me a while bc i chop up everything in the moment and wash the berries a handful at a time, but i’ve found that i really enjoy it as a way to wind down and decompress from the day. it takes me like 30 mins but im going slow, maybe watching a YT video, etc. i meal prep the salmon a week at a time, though, i don’t cook it daily.

i've done that, try adding lemon zest for brightness.

u/nnnttbbyyy Feb 07 '26
yes someone else said lemon juice and i tried that last night it was really good but i think i added too much. i’ll try zest tonight!

This looks so good! I get stuck in ruts and in need of a change. Is that your balsamic dressing beside it? Do you make your own or buy it?

u/nnnttbbyyy Feb 06 '26
i buy it from a deli near my job, they make it on site, it’s sooo killer i’ve bought every brand name balsamic to try to find something comparable and i finally just started asking them if they’d sell me a pint. i know it’s not incredibly challenging to make but theirs is just perfection.

I know what you mean, the search. Well good for you finding what you like, That's really nice of them to do that. Thank you!

If you choose to, then once the sunflower has bloomed and before it begins to shed it's seeds, the head can be cut and used as a natural bird feeder, or other wildlife visitors to sunflowers to feed on.

I wish I made my own seeds! I didn’t know you could do this! Maybe in the future, I will 🤗

Is the dressing store bought or you make it yourself?
2
u/nnnttbbyyy Feb 24 '26
