If you are still reading this post…I would like to ask you women (assuming most of you are women)…what your husbands do when you refuse to cook on a weekend?
Going out or ordering food from outside is always an option but just to make my lady happy…I tossed up some of her favourite salad. Since this is my first and last post (I’ve been forced to do so) please pardon me if the method/instructions are not that clear.
Main elements
Iceburg lettuce
Baby tomatoes
Sweet corn
Chopped capsicum
Grated carrot
Cooked farfalle pasta
Elements that make the salad no punishment…
Mayo 1 tablespoon
Low-fat Greek yogurt 3 tablespoons
Orange juice 1 tablespoon
Oregano herb 1 tea spoon
Crushed garlic
Salt to taste
Here we go...
Step1: Put all the main elements into a large bowl.
Step2: For the dressing: mix all the yummy stuff in a separate bowl and beat them with a hand beater/fork till it becomes creamy and light…some what like crème fraiche.
Step 3: Throw the dressing into the bowl having veggies and stir it in together till all the veggies get coated.
Few suggestions…
If you like it extra tangy…add more of orange juice or even a better option would be to add citrus flavoured vodka.
Hope you like my creation...this is A (the husband) signing off.

Definitely read the whole post and I love the dressing and of course the salad itself, nice presentation. My husband cooks too when I refuse to get in the kitche, of course ordering is always another option :)
