Made to directions, tasted and then added more cheese.  We love raw sprouts but this salad was a bit blah for us until we doctored.

Fun & tasty :)

This goes really fast with pre-cut sprouts! I like to leave it overnight to soften before eating.I've tried both regular & Meyer lemons. For regular lemons, I leave out the zest due to the strong flavor. For Meyer lemons, both zest & juice taste great.
