      They all look so good and crunchy but I would have to say my favourite is the ensalata russa. Looks irresistable!

      I love your selection of salads Erica! I've got some avocados ripening on the table this week... I'll have to try out one of your avocado salads when they ripen! The Avocado-Corn Salad with Lime Vinaigrette looks especially delicious!
