Summer is here and my garden is finally producing veggies. This year it’s small and has been a little slow. My whole reason for growing is tomatoes. I can not stand those things in the grocery store that produce guys says are tomatoes. To me tomatoes are those wonderful things you grow and have flavor. Best picked off the vine, washed off and eaten right then.

I had several tomatoes com of the vine and have been sitting on my counter to ripen up a little more. Today they were calling my name. I just had to have to have one or two. So this morning I was eating late so what to fix. I wanted something a little more than just tomatoes. Something heathy too. I came up this little salad.

1 small can canned chicken
2 medium garden tomatoes
4-6 artichoke hearts
1 avocado
1 small baby cucumber
Salt
Pepper
Little bit of olive oil

Cut veggies, use fork to shred up chicken, and toss with olive oil. Season with salt and pepper.

This is a very light salad that you could use tuna instead of chicken. I opted for chicken because I am not a fan of fish.
