    Fresh Green Salad with Lime-Lemon DressingPin

    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!

      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'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!
