It is very hard nowadays to get ourselves off the processed foods available in the market. Although I don’t want to kick off a debate on what’s good and what’s not, I can definitely give choices. Salad’s are a typical example where we use different varieties of dressing’s typically bought from the markets. To get away from this routine, I made my own salad dressing today using lemon and honey and used it with Strawberry Almond Salad. The taste it gave to the salad was absolutely unique and I loved having it for my dinner. Making a salad, is probably one of the quickest jobs and ingredients are all full of health benefits. The salad can be served along with the regular main course or just on its own. So whatever your preference try this Strawberry Almond Salad with home made dressing today and enjoy the lovely taste.
