Citrus Salad (as seen on PBS-TV & Ventura County Star) from Lady in the Window’s The Plumeria Café™
This light, sweet and crunchy salad works fantastic as an appetizer, side salad, or as a main course (served with a protein of your choice). The salad dressing, made with fresh lemon and lime juice, a dash of garlic salt, honey, and a tad of extra virgin olive oil, provides a slight tang when mixed with the sweet fruit. Flavors from the fresh dill sprigs and red onion also blend harmoniously with the fresh strawberries and Mandarin oranges. For more fresh & delicious recipes, visit The Plumeria Café,™ a charming eatery featured in “Lady in the Window,” (Hardcover & eBook @Barnes and Noble and Amazon), Maryann’s new novel from SelectBooks, which captures the Aloha Spirit, hope, healing, karmic romance, and the infinite mother-daughter bond. The café features a menu of eclectic dishes from blissful breakfasts to luscious lunches and delicious dinners to delectable baked goods, all developed with aloha by Maryann and made with fresh, organic ingredients.
