A deliciously crisp, fresh salad that satisfies all your sweet-and-salty cravings!

With the warmer weather we’ve been having here in New York, I’ve been craving raw fruits and veggies. Not to mention no-cook side dishes.

This salad is super simple to put together, and it’s a nice, refreshing salad that’s perfect alongside lots of different main courses.

It’s also a great winter salad that goes well with comfort food dishes like lasagna (this Ravioli Lasagna or Skillet Lasagna with Lamb, Ricotta + Mint would both be great choices) or a piping hot serving of Italian Sausage and Peppers.

This salad was a big hit with my family. It was great alongside these Chimichurri Shrimp.
