Tangy Cilantro Lime Confetti Salad image

I love standout salads that burst with flavor-the kind that make you feel as if you're splurging without having to eat that piece of chocolate cake. This is one of my very favorites, and everyone I serve it to loves it as well. -Jasey McBurnett, Rock Springs, Wyoming

I love this salad! It's so easy to make and it's always a hit with my friends and family. I usually add some grilled chicken or tofu for extra protein. This salad is perfect for a summer picnic or potluck.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover rice. I had some cooked brown rice in the fridge and this salad was the perfect way to use it up. The rice adds a nice heartiness to the salad and the dressing is light and flavorful.

This salad is a great way to get your daily dose of vitamins and minerals. The confetti tomatoes are packed with antioxidants and the cilantro is a good source of vitamins A and C. Plus, the dressing is made with healthy olive oil.

I'm not usually a fan of cilantro, but this salad changed my mind. The lime juice really toned down the cilantro flavor and the overall taste was incredibly balanced. Definitely making this again!
