Summer.Salad.

I'm really not a huge salad fan but this is simply delicious. And full of fresh summer ingredients. The secret ingredients are lemon zest and mint!
















[Salad ingredients:]

1 package of bibb lettuce
1 lemon's worth of zest
Handful of cherry tomatoes
Diced avocado
Handful of mint, chopped (basil if store is out of mint)
Handful of chives --- cut into 1/4 inch pieces
Handful of pine nuts --- toasted
Grilled chicken if desired

[Dressing:]
Juice of 1 lemon
Juice of 1 lime
1T of dijon mustard
1T of honey
1t of Chipotle Tabasco
1T of vinegar
3T of olive oil
Salt & Pepper

Combine all salad ingredients in bowl. To toast pine nuts just swirl in dry skillet/small saucepan over medium heat until turn brown. Combine all dressing ingredients in small mixing bowl and whisk. Toss over salad. Top with chicken.

So good.
