Food: Foundational Salad

The "design-it-yourself salsa disguised as a salad" from Fast, Fresh and Green by Susie Middleton:
Dressing:
  • 3 Tbsp olive oil
  • 1 Tbsp orange juice
  • 2 tsp lime juice
  • 1 tsp honey
  • salt
Whisk!
For salad, cut into small dice:
  • 10 oz tomatoes
  • 8 oz cucumber or summer squash
  • 10 oz peaches, nectarines, plums, mango, cantaloupe or honeydew
  • 10 oz avocado
  • 1 oz radish
Toss with 1/2 tsp salt and 3 Tbsp chopped green herbs. Dress to taste. Last night I served this with fish and grilled vegetables, and vowed always to make it or a variation when I grill. Awesome!
