Who knew tuna and curry would work? All I knew, was that after a long day at work I was tired. Bone tired. And, craving curry. Was I organized in the kitchen to make a curry dinner? Absolutely not. This curry craving was becoming an obsession as the day progressed. I think I would have happily sprinkled curry seasoning on top of pancakes!
Onto the curry I most love. Back in the day, I used to blend my own curry spices. Once I discovered Cartwrights Curry - I have never gone back.....it is just too good, in fact, superb! So blend your own, or use your favorite curry blend.
In this recipe I used fresh shelling peas from our local farmers market, but frozen would work just as well. We are still having lots of fresh leaf lettuce from the garden, but a nice crispy romaine would taste great too.
By the way, I am getting very excited....we are off to our favorite Island Getaway on Friday...hope to get lot of pictures of the Organic Farm tour we are attending, as well as some beautiful Island pictures to post next week.  Here is a post from last years visit to Salt Spring Island. And bonus...I get to hear the guys play...have not heard the three of them play together since last year....yeahhhh!!!
Have a great weekend everyone!

This sounds really good, Ina. I will have to try it soon. Thanks for sharing the recipe, and have fun on your island!
PS) Listening to your husband's music on your Salt Spring Island post. It's really beautiful. Does he have music for sale?
Thanks Erin! Yes he does have a CD available. We get back on Monday evening, - if you want to email me I can give you the details! 🙂
Ina I know this coast isn't suffering from much heat, but this looks perfect for a porch side dinner, whether donning sweater and slippers or t-shirts and flip flops.
Thanks Tom - I will take the t-shirt and flip flops any day!
Will do. Thanks. 🙂
The oven is broken and it's over 100 degrees outside, this salad lokks perfect. I'll be making this for dinner this week. Thanks!
Mama! That is hot! Hope you enjoy the salad - drink lots of water too! 🙂
