Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

    Usually I’m not a fan of fruit-based salads, but I love the saltiness of the dressing and tartness of the apples. Very straightforward to assemble for a quick, light lunch. The black lime made my salad look grayish (rather than the pop bright colors found in the book)—not super appetizing from a visual perspective, unfortunately.

    Bright and refreshing. Perfect dinner on a hot summer day.
