I love quick, simple and delicious meals in the spring and summer months! It’s a great time to eat lighter and enjoy all the fresh produce from you garden or from the Farmer’s Market. This recipe takes about 10 minutes to make and is a good make-ahead salad that you can have in your fridge for snacks and quick lunches. Bonus, the kids love it, too! Double bonus, you are adding in a great source of protein and fiber, as well! Serve with carrot sticks, cucumber slices, avocado or some fresh sliced tomatoes from the garden! Yummy!
