Radicchio Salad With Honey Lime Dressing
The fresh ingredients in this recipe are easy to pick up in a run to the local grocery store or even most Wal-Mart stores. This refreshing spring or summer salad can be turned into a meal by adding some leftover roasted chicken or almost any meat you have handy.
Ingredients
2 cups torn radicchio leaves
2 cups baby spinach leaves
1 cup halved seedless red grapes
4 fresh dates, pitted and chopped
3 Tablespoons fresh lime juice
Zest from one lime
1 Tablespoon canola oil
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepperDirections
In a salad bowl combine the lime juice and honey. Stir until they fully dissolve together. Whisk in the oil, salt, pepper and lime zest. Add the radicchio, spinach, grapes and dates and toss to completely coat the leaves with dressing. Serve immediately.
If you don't have a zester tool, you can get almost the same results by carefully slicing off the color part of the lime rind being careful to not get too much of the white part. Chop the rind into very tiny pieces, the smaller the better.
Serves: 2 to 4

Note
You may notice that some of our recipes do not contain exact measurements for all ingredients. Cooking on the road is an art more than a science. We view each recipe as only a suggestion - a starting point for your own personal creativity.
We aren't usually dealing with food chemistry in these recipes since we aren't baking with leavening, etc., so feel free to use as much or as little of any suggested ingredient. Be creative and imaginative! Substitute the foods you like or have available for the ones in the recipes. And if you find something that turns out well for you, please share it with the rest of us.
