There’s a battle going on over here.
It’s hot out.
I want to bake and I don’t want to bake. And I want to bake. Wahh.
Then again, do I really want to turn on the oven when we live in a cute little house with no air conditioning?
I have a few really good books that have been collecting dust over in the corner. They’re calling for me and a cold, non-baked glass of strawberry lemonade.
See how nice that would be?
But listen – can’t you hear those brownies calling for me? Don’t lie. I know you can.
Time for this curry salad to swoop in and save my from my baking addiction! I adore this salad for three reasons.
- It tastes sweet, spicy, and amazing all at the same time.
- It takes me 5 minutes to make.
- It doesn’t use the oven!
Make it today. And tomorrow. And for the rest of the summer.
And I probably won’t be able to hold off the baking urge much longer, so get your oven mitts ready!
