Evergreen's Thoughts

Inspired by my fabulous figs!

of course you can use any veggies you like,the tomato flowers make it special.

Any flower from my bountiful bouquet recipe would work as well.

This salad is not 100% raw,make any desired changes :) As it is only meant to inspire…...

Note: raw balsamic glaze substitute,combine equal parts date syrup, braggs apple cider vinegar, and blackberry juice (juice will be very thick) in bullet or blender, strain, keep in squeeze bottle in fridge.

Blackberry juice can be made in your juicer,or simply by pressing berries through a mesh strainer using the back of a spoon, or squeeze through nut-milk bag or paint strainer.
