So healthy and wonderful for summer. we generally eat spinach cooked here, but I love it raw and add often it into green salads. I sometimes make a sandwich from spinach leaves and cheese. I love all these veggies together in this salad.

Oh Erica this is right up my alley!!! i absolutely love cilantro (I could stick my face in a bunch and just inhale all day long). the only thing is, im not fond of feta, so I'd have to use Ranchero Queso Fresco. I'm going to give this a try next week for my weekly salad night dinner. thank you 🙂
