Lunchtime!

I made such a pretty lunch today, so I thought I’d share it.  A salad full of bright colors and generous flavors is the perfect way to load up on more than a few of my daily vegetable servings.  And, the homemade lime dressing took about 32 seconds to make – waaaay healthier (and cheaper!) than anything I could get out of a bottle.

A few handfuls mixed baby romaine lettuce

1/2 avocado, diced

1/2 red pepper, diced

Palmful kalamata olives, sliced in half

1 tomato, diced

Dressing:

2 parts lime juice

3 parts olive oil

Genersou dash of cumin and chili powder

Quick sprinkle of salt

Whisk dressing ingredients together. Toss salad ingredients.  Pour dressing over salad – enjoy!

  1. This reminds me of the delicious avocado-tomato salad recipe from our local Ethiopian restaurant. You really can’t go wrong with avocado and in-season tomatoes.

    We should have our first garden tomatoes very soon 🙂
