Very light, refreshing, great tasting salad!
very cute pic! looks like a pic i would see in a magazine :) i'm impressed that you followed the recipe exactly (except the green onions), i seem to have trouble doing that.
ReplyDeletegrrreaatt start! can't wait for more posts!
Actually it means that you are a good cook if you alter the recipe, first I tried it like it is, next time I'll probably mess with it a little more, I forgot, I didn't add celery either.
