Pancetta and Pine Nut Salad
Created by Karen, Tuesday, 20 April 2010
Description
Pine kernels have many of the healthful properties other nuts have. They are a great addition to any salad. Use a variety of salad leaves, such as rocket, red leaf, green leaf, and Romaine to round it off. The more antioxidant rich the leaves, the healthier the salads.
