Food and Lifestyle Photography by @christineshoots : Summer Salads for Nourish K+T and Equinox

It's been HOT. I miss those lazy summer days when all I did was ride my bike to get an ice cream cone from Baskin Robbins with my saved up coins and dollar bills. Being a grown-up is overrated! Anyway, this heat calls for cold noodles and salads everyday (plus copious amounts of iced coffee to get through grown-up things like 'work').

Speaking of salads, Nourish Kitchen + Table collaborated with Q by Equinox to produce a Summer Salad Series, which I got to photograph! All these salads are delicious (I tasted them all, natch), and just perfect for the season. Try them out and let me know which is your favorite.

Up on Equinox's blog today is Watermelon Salad with Basil, Ricotta Salata, and Red Onion. The salty-sweet combo is totally refreshing.
