Zesty Summer Salad

Gemelli Salad with Green Beans, Pistachio, and Lemon-Thyme Vinaigrette 

Who isn't getting a little bit tired of the same old mayonnaisey pasta and potato salad that you'll find at every picnic?  I know I am, so I'm always looking for new salads to spice up those summer get-togethers.  The fresh lemon and thyme in this recipe give it such a great flavor.  The green beans fill out the salad and minimize the carbs.

About Little Murph

Liverpool, NY, United States
My love for cooking started when I could barely reach the countertops. My mom would get out all of the baking supplies and let me create. Needless to say, my cooking techniques have become a bit more sophisticated. I believe that I can recreate anything I see in a restaraunt or cookbook. For this reason, my husband has said that I have "ruined eating out for him". I also believe that anyone can cook a delicious meal at home, gourmet kitchen or not. I'm a working woman but I find that after a long day at work, my kitchen is my sanctuary and I'm never too tired to cook up something new. I get bored very easily so trying new things is always a must! I think that cooking has become such an important part of my life because I love making others happy and I'm able to do that through my food. Thank you to all of my family and friends for all of your love and support, especially my husband Shawn, you are the reasons why I cook!
