my favorite meal/salad

lotusfromthemud

This strange combination of ingredients is my new favorite salad. It will also calm down my sweet tooth.

One pear, chopped
One apple, chopped
One tiny cucumber (or half a small, or a third of an "english")
juice of one half of a lime

mix these ingredients together, and toss with the lime juice

Then, mix
1 tbs. of almond butter
about one tbs of warm water
and toss with the other ingredients.

makes one enormous salad (or two moderate sized)

If you have room for more calories, a handful of chopped walnuts is divine.
If you want to share, add raw spinach (about 10 calories a cup)

Sounds great. Do you let is sit in the fridge for a while to marinate?

Nope, I just eat it. But, I think the extra thing the lime juice does is prevent the fruit from browning if it sits.

YUMMY that sound FAB!
I think I will make it tonight.
I agree that the lime MUST be to stop the browning.
Not to mention the flavor!
I am thinking adding fresh mint to this would taste grand too.
