REC: Cool summer salad
I was on the hunt for somthing different for a summer salad and ran across this. It's cool, crisp, a bit spicy and herbacious. I just might live on this during the summer.

I just did a similarly sized watermelon and barley salad and was surprised it only had 1/2 C oil. I think Koko will let you live if you choose to use less oil, though. She's nice like that. <g> Jim |

I interchange cilantro, watercress, parsley depending on my mood or availability. Jim |
