A platter salad meal is just the thing for these in between times. Not the full heat of summer, but not the cool kiss of fall either. The bulk of the summer fresh produce is fading but the winter squashes and apples aren’t quite here. Not quite time for soups and stews.

Bloody Mary Shrimp Platter Salad

The early days of summer are a perfect time for a big, beautiful salad. Bountiful enough for a meal with make-ahead elements that just require some last-minute assembly. I love to serve these platter salads outside with everyone gathered around to mix and match their own perfect meal.

I'm P.C. I think I am like most people. Somewhere in the middle between food snob and food schlub. Just being in the kitchen makes me happy. I live, mostly in my kitchen, in my hometown of Memphis, Tennessee.
