Fast, Easy + Simple
Asian Green Salad
Check out all those colors. We eat with our eyes after all.
Tender and crunchy romaine lettuce, along with the red bell pepper, raw carrots and sugar snap peas. My favorite parts are the fresh basil and mint, orange and lime juice in the dressing and lots of fresh ginger and garlic hints. Basic, I think not.
I love arranging the vegetables in little piles all around the bowl. Of course you drizzle it all with the dressing and toss it together, but all the colors still show up.
Make it ahead of time.
Serve this at your next friends and family gathering.
This salad not only looks amazing but is great to feed a crowd. Make it a few hours before you are going to serve it and just toss with the dressing when you serve it. SO easy, right?!
