Chef Ryan Orlando styled this stunning salad for The Plot in Oceanside using plums from Sage Hill Ranch Gardens and tomatoes from the Plot Garden Project. It’s truly wondrous how delicious two ingredients can be when dressed with the right sauce.

That’s because the right sauce can make almost anything a dish.

Want to try making a cover salad for yourself? Here’s Orlando’s recipe for a garden chimichurri. While this recipe was designed to use up an assortment of herbs and greens from The Plot Garden Project, it might be exactly what you need to say goodbye to that bag of wilting salad mix in the back of the fridge.
