I love salads and now with spring here and all the vegetables and fruits growing my need for salads is huge. I always try to find different salads but the main ingredient is healthy salads, for me, my husband and my kids. Vegetables are fresh, healthy and tasty so, the whole family can take advantage of it.

Today I bring here a recipe I found at Disney Family Food that it’s called:
