Tonight I made my Favorite salad!! My favorite for so many reasons!! Its packed with tons of nutrients! Low in calories, and high in healing properties! The lemon as we all know is an amazing fruit, very high in vitamin C, and in antiseptic properties. Of course the garlic we all know to be healing, garlic contains antibacterial, antiviral and antifungal agents! It helps lower blood pressure and cholesterol. I could keep going.....but you get the point ;) The best part is it compliments almost any dish!
It is gluten free, but not dairy free....You could leave the feta off for dairy free!
Happy Cooking
