SPINACH SALAD WITH LEMON AND MINT



Spinach Salad With Lemon and Mint image

This salad is a snip, but then one would hardly expect a salad to cause trouble. Using a lemon rather than just lemon juice as an ingredient makes for the most fabulous salad regardless of leaves. And by all means, serve it as a starter rather than a follow-up on the main course. It is fresh, sharp, vegan and delicious.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use ripe, in-season tomatoes.

  • If you don't have fresh mint, you can use dried mint instead. Just be sure to use half the amount, as dried mint is more concentrated.
  • Feta cheese is a great addition to this salad, but you can also use goat cheese or mozzarella if you prefer.
  • If you're making this salad ahead of time, be sure to drain off any excess liquid before serving.

Conclusion:

This tomato salad with lemon and mint is a refreshing and delicious side dish that's perfect for summer gatherings. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own preferences. So next time you're looking for a light and healthy salad, give this one a try.
