SPINACH SALAD WITH LEMON AND MINT
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.
- To remove the seeds from the tomatoes, cut them in half crosswise and scoop out the seeds with a spoon.
- 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.
