SICILIAN SUMMER ORANGE SALAD

---

Hello My Magickal Beings! 
I wanted to share this magickal summer recipe with you today! This is a recipe that my father always made for me growing up, and it's one that would keep me cool, as it is a nice a refreshing, garden dish for the hot summer months. I know it sounds a bit odd, mixing citrus with olive and salt and pepper, but TRUST ME ON THIS! This will wake up your taste buds, there's no doubt about it!!

You can see me make this recipe in my VLOG FOR THE MIDSUMMER SOLSTICE (2020) HERE! But if you want a text version without having to scroll through a long video, I gotchu!
