Best summer salad ever
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I can't wait for summer to get here so I can get those home grown tomato's to make this salad. It is so full of flavor it... just can't be beat. Not the same with store bought tomato's but well worth the wait for those summer tomato's.Read more

It was a hit!
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

Made this for a party and it was a hit! I did add garlic powder to the dressing and it did help the bite. But once you find... the right amount of spices to your liking, it's awesome!! And an empty bowl can't be wrong!Read more

Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This salad was fresh, summery, and simply delicious. The only thing I would change it to add a bit more salt. I also made a... variation where I used 1 lime and 1 lemon and it was also delicious!Read more
