Simple salads
It’s the end of the day and you’ve brought some gorgeous veggies home from the market. Why not make a salad for dinner tonight? Say opa to Greece with feta, olives, tomatoes or buon appetito, Italia, with tomatoes, basil and Bocconcini or head to Mexico with avocado, sour cream, tomatoes and cilantro. Serve your salads in colorful bowls or glasses for a fast, easy summer dinner.

What to pair with your salad
Mexican: Jose Cuervo Margarita sparkling tequila cooler pairs perfectly with cilantro and avocado. With its fresh citrus and lemon-lime notes, it’s the ideal beverage pairing!
Greek: Why not try a wine from the country that produces some excellent bottles well worth discovering? Kir-Yianni Paranga white wine has notes of honeydew melon and white flowers that highlight this salad’s flavours.
Italian: Colour and freshness come together when you pair this salad with Simboli Pinot Grigio that bears the “Fruity and Light” taste tag. This wine is an ideal accompaniment to salads made with Bocconcini or other fresh cheeses.
