Notes: Once again, hanging with Lucy proves fruitful…this salad was awesome!! So easy to make, and I think almost everything was bought at the farmers market, which makes it even better. I love summer and California! We watched Gray’s Anatomy and ate this salad and it was perfect! I love fruit in a savory type salad. You could sprinkle in parmesan cheese which would be great, and always serve yummy bread with it! I hope you like it!!
