Mixing Up Some Salad

Help me give my students the salad bowl and ingredients to make salad with the leafy greens we grow!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Tina Alcain's classroom raised $260

This project is fully funded

My Project

Our raised bed gardens have been growing lots of leafy greens, but we haven't had an awesome salad yet because we didn't have the right ingredients. The olive oil and balsamic vinegar will make a delicious balsamic dressing we will use to dress our arugula and kale so we know what our vegetables are supposed to taste like. The salad bowl will make dressing our salads so much easier and looks nice too.

Learning how to eat their greens is one thing I stress for my students in class because we are not growing these vegetables for nothing.

I have always wanted to try to make an authentic ceasar dressing, and the anchovies, olive oil and salad bowl will be used to do this. When we are done dressing the greens we will top them with the croutons and some parmesan cheese and go to town!! We can't wait!
