Frequent Gastroposter Our favourite salad: spinach salad. Even better if the greens come from your own garden.

Anna Wang @eatlovehealth Leftover bo la lot on romaine greens and tomatoes

Elisha Gill

@epgjoy Brighten up your salad with edible flowers.

Bonnie Vockeroth @shinytomato My take on the Oakwood’s warm kale salad

Lexi Kish @wonederfultreats Just ’cause you live in a condo doesn’t mean you can’t grow wonderful veggies

YOUR NEXT MISSION: BEER VS. EVERYTHING ELSE With hot weather comes camping, cooking outdoors and, of course, cracking a cold one. But of what? With a full-scale craft beer revolution going on and microbreweries popping up on every block (and even in foods like stout ice cream and beer battered fish and chips), does anyone dare to a bout with beer? Lovers of cocktails, spirits and wine — not to forget all the refreshing non-alcoholic summer staples like lemonade and iced tea — say bring it on! This week, we pit beer against all other beverages to crown the king of drinks. Whether your loyalty is to lager or another liquid refreshment, show us if you side with beer or everything else.
