Why do you not use the stems? Great source of fiber and nutrients, too.

I'm sure this salad is pretty yummy. You are a very darling young lady, but I must make one small suggestion when you are preparing food. You may want to tie your beautiful hair back. Hopefully you were making this salad just for yourself.

To Kathi Green...I'm pretty sure she is making it for herself...it looks like her kitchen not a restaurant!

RE: Comment
Yes Kerrilyn, thank you. I am aware that she is not in a restaurant, but from my view point working in the food & hospitality industry for over 30 years, I just automatically take notice of things like that. Thanks again for the comment. And to the salad maker, please keep your great ideas for salads and such. :)

This is a great, simple salad recipe. Thanks for posting it.

Per Kathi Green, I have to say YES to keeping your hair out of the food. There's nothing more disgusting than finding a hair in your salad (well, maybe finding a bug...or...)!

One of the great things about being a cook is that you get to create beautiful meals to enjoy with friends and family. Being mindful of simple things like washing your hands and tying up your hair is part of heart-centered cooking and it's so easy to do.

There's more to great cooking than just a recipe!
