This has led to lots of adventures because our son frequently picks up things in the produce aisle while we’re shopping, and not all of the things he selects are things we’re familiar with. We’ve ended up with taro, cactus leaves, and kumquats in addition to the normal cucumbers, tomatoes, and bananas. It’s been very interesting, but it seems to have worked: at the age of three our son’s favorite place to look for snack foods is the refrigerator veggie drawer.

For a fun variation and more chai-like flavor, you can add a couple pods of cardamom, too.

Salads rock.
