I never leave reviews for anything online. However I made this salad last night and it was soooo delicious, I had to leave a review! I have never liked eating salads because I don't like salad dressing. This recipe appealed to me because it used no dressing, just olive oil and lime juice. The flavor was just amazing, even my picky-eating kids liked it! Thanks for this awesome recipe. This will be a staple meal in our house :)

My boyfriend and I loved it and my teenage daughter raved about it. She even asked to take the leftovers to school for lunch the next day and she NEVER takes her lunch! I will be making this again soon!

So easy & delicious. No cooking required. My husband & I couldn't decide who would eat it for lunch the next day since we both wanted it again.
