It’s corn slab season. Make extra corn on the cob. Out of the fridge cut the corn off the cob in big slabs. Looks so cool in a salad. This salad has another surprise on the bottom mustard cornbread croutons. Spoon a few dollops of whole grain mustard into the cornbread batter. Love how you can see the seeds. Make it with milk not buttermilk so it’s drier and make it very thin. The croutons are on the bottom so they can soak up all the juicy tomato water. The third thing to notice is the little mozzarella pearls and meaty Fordhook Lima beans. They have a similar texture! Will scatter the basil before serving and drizzle with good balsamic vinegar. So it’s kind of a caprese succotash mash up. Now’s the time for this baby.

We’re going old school and just blobbing straight mayo on this tomato #plattersalad. Sopping up the juices with cornbread. Not shown is @rbquinnstagram shelf chicken crowder peas and yella squash and 🌽. My #saladbrain is dreaming about tomorrow’s salad with all the leftovers. #platteralthinking. Fancy doesn’t mean better. Remember your occasion parameters. Serve that skillet #cornbread crust side up!

Two things to notice here. 1. Color theory lesson. You can clearly see that the Cherokee tomato in the lower right of the platter is a red that goes toward blue and the others are more yellow and orange red. So great to have a red blue platter to point this out. 2. That creamy dressing is pesto labneh. Whiz up basil leaves garlic clove Parmesan a dollop of mayo. People go crazy for this. Let the tomato colors and shapes shine and serve the thick cheesy dressing on the side.

The red that favors blue is a deep deep subject. Red is not just red. Here are similar blue reds with completely different tastes in one salad beets cherries and radicchio. Add complementary color 🥑 and pepper rings. There’s a lot going on here all anchored by the strong color. It was just lucky that I had this old yellow green platter. The perfect complement! #platteralthinking #plattersalad #saladcolortheory #saladsofinstagram #salads #cherries #beets🥗💪🏻🤸🏼

Stay loose and see where it leads. 🥗🤸🏼

What you can barely see around the edges of this #plattersalad is the labneh ranch dressing. Labneh replaces the usual buttermilk and makes the dressing really creamy and cheesy. Soooo good with summer tomatoes. Just stir up labneh with some mayonnaise add lots of black pepper herbs of your choice and salt. A smashed clove of garlic is always nice. This time I went with fresh mint. Put the dressing underneath so you can still enjoy the colors and salad design.

A simple tomato basil salad unlocks the color wheel. Complementary colors are opposites that attract. They always feel good. A handy design trick to remember. Red and green. Yellow and purple. #saladbrain #platteralthinking #saladsofinstagram #salads #tomatoes #plattersalad #colortheory

This might come in handy this summer. I know it’s in a bowl😂💪🏻. It’s pico slaw. Any color shredded cabbage blended with pico ingreds. Tomato cilantro hot peppers and onion. Use what you have. Dressed with the usual salt mayo acid sugar blend. Except this time the acid is lime/lemon juice. Go light on the mayo and sugar. Should be tangy. Fantastic with any kind of tacos Grilled meats sausages fish shrimp. This a def one of the small ways I’ve succeeded in contributing to the greater good. #slaw #salad #picodegallo 🥗🤸🏼#oldfavoriterecipe

My pastry chef friend Mary told me her secret for insuring that a juicy fruit pie keeps its shape and the fruit doesn’t get too mushy. Assemble it, freeze it, and then bake it. Here’s an informal peach pie made with some leftover pie dough. Works like a charm. She also sprinkles a mix of flour and sugar over the unbaked bottom crust. No more soggy bottom. #peachpie #pie

Your #plattersalad practice means everyday. Not just important salads. Here we’ve got a big Cherokee tomato sticks of cucumber roasted corn and Vidalia onion slivers all on a plate covered with a creamy layer of buttermilk dressing. No big deal but gorgeous. Also the dressing underneath lets the delicate ingredients float on the dressing. Tastes like summer in Tennessee. #saladbrain. Relax and make some decisions. See what happens. It’s okay. #salad #saladsofinstagram

Nothing better than a carport party. R.B. is finishing the ribs with a quick glazing on the old portable kitchen grill dad got back in the early 1960s. Everyone arriving soon! #pkgrills.

Listen to your platter. Sometimes it tells you what to do. Thanks platter for the color palette. My parameters: clean salad to go with @rbquinnstagram Father’s Day smoked brisket and ribs. You always need something to cut through all that fatty meat. Of course we’re having slaw and potato salad too! All colors and cut shapes of cherry tomatoes. Cucumber half moons. Hot peppers for dad. Vidalia onion slivers and chive sticks. My #saladbrain likes the salad to look not overly touched but deeply felt. Haha! Dressing is simplest vinaigrette light on the oil. Salads don’t exist in isolation. What are your occasion and meal parameters? #platteralthinking. #plattersalad #salad #saladsofinstagram
