This recipe is loaded with so many vegetables I feel like I am getting healthier every time I eat it. Despite the bad rap the Middle East has gotton in recent time I rerally think we should be grateful they shared this wonderful salad with us. Anyways. This recipe takes a little time to put together but it is really refreshing and like I said extremely healthy. It’s a nice simple, light and flavorful recipe you can eat as a meal in itself or with together with a main. The lemon juice gives you a nice detox too. Serve with a nice whole grain pita bread. Stay healthy ladies and lets hope we all lose weight in the new year. I know this salad is going to help me do just that.
