I love this salad because it is easy, healthy, and can look fancy if a friend stops by for lunch. I make it often. Drop me a note if you give it a try.
You know the saying, its the little things that make a difference? Well, it is especially true when selecting ingredients for your favorite recipe.
If you can, always choose organic and a good quality extra virgin olive oil. The end result will truly be worth it.
Adding fresh herbs adds so much flavor and additional nutritional value to your dishes. This year I have basil, dill, oregano, parsley, and chives in my garden and I love that I can walk right outside and pick what I need! (note to self, plant rosemary next year)
