    This green salad is simple and quick to prepare. Save the recipe for the hot  summer days ahead when you don't want to touch the stove 🙂 You'll thank me for it later!

    The recipe here is only a guideline. I am sure you don't need a recipe. The key is to use fresh ingredients.

    Enjoy!

      I'm loving all the "greens" in your salad, Erica! And green even to the dressing! I've used limes in my vinaigrettes, but only because I ran out of lemons! And I love the lime taste, too. Will try to run out of lemons more often!

      Great salad and the dressing is just perfect. I use lemon and lime instead of vinegar most of the time...the freshness of the citrus.....Delicioso!

      I was surprised by the dressing; it sounds delicious, but only one tablespoon of oil?

      I love the photo, such vibrant color. And the viniagrette! I usually make the standard lemony dijon base with varying herbs to switch it up. Now I have a completely new version to try. Thanks again for your innovative recipes.
