Forget getting your kids to eat their veggies, getting us as parents to eat our own veggies can be hard enough. I mean have you tasted an Oreo? Right! But veggies are amazing and there are so many options to make gorgeous and unique salads that during “rainbow” blog month, I wanted to make sure I put up this beautiful way to TASTE the rainbow with Rainbow Chef Salad.
PRO TIP:
Before you get started, you need to do some prep. Salad is one of my very favorite things to eat but cutting everything up is among some of the worst kitchen chores for me- especially those pretty purple onions. Make sure you have a good quality chopper like this one. It not only makes it QUICK but also keeps the excess of onion smell off your hands and out of your life – while still allowing you to enjoy!

All month long instead of pushing leprechauns and four leaf clovers your way, I decided to focus on rainbows. Pot at the end of the rainbow…get it? Ok, nevermind, it’s a stretch BUT it has been fun sharing some creative crafts and recipes with you this month and hopefully making parenting the best part of your day.
