This healthy, flavorful salad is great served cold, room temperature or hot! Springer Mountain Farms is thrilled to be collaborating with Ansley Wall from @tidal_tastes on Instagram. Ansley is a busy working Mom of 2 in Charleston, South Carolina, and looks to feed her family in a quick, healthy, family friendly fashion. Her recipes are great for week night meals, sweet treats, or for those who love to entertain a crowd, as they do. Ansley started Tidal Tastes at the urging of her friends who were always requesting recipes to share with their family. What started with cake has diversified into so much more, and she’s enjoying every step of the way, especially having her adorable 2 year old sous chef by her side…and always stealing the show!
