My family and I have been enjoying this lime vinaigrette recipe for so long, I don't even remember where I got it from. Sometimes I add dried basil and anchovy paste to add a little variation to the dressing. -Marian Brown, Mississauga, Ontario

IRELAND'S SIMPLE GREEN SALAD FOR 2 WITH LIGHT LIME VINAIGRETTE

Ireland's Simple Green Salad for 2 With Light Lime Vinaigrette image

My sister in law brought the following fresh salad (using organic produce from our local farmers' market) to a family function and I loved the simplicity. Her version was served with one of the Newman's Own brand store bought salad dressings. I don't normally buy store bought dressings so I found this lime vinaigrette recipe on Food Network. I modified it by intentionally omitting all the herbs. Try your favorite dressing, preferably a light vinaigrette. Anything too heavy will overpower the salad.
