Ariel’s Calorie-Friendly Health Salad

When she’s not overseeing things at South Lane Bistro in Guilford, Conn, Ariel Miller is creating healthy recipes for herself and her family. That’s how she came up with a salad of fresh spinach, fresh grapefruit sections, and sliced avocado, dressed with her favorite balsamic reduction from Whole Foods (no corn syrup.)

It’s a wonder Ariel has time to cook anything at home, considering the growing popularity of South Lane, down the alley just opposite The Green in Guilford. This winter, there’s been a run on seats on the porch, where a gas fire feels warming, along with the blankets tossed across the back of every diner’s chair. The burger is a favorite, and so are the fish tacos, but recently Faith tried an old fashioned turkey dinner with gravy, stuffing and a cranberry compote. Pure comfort on a freezing night.
