A Fresh Summer Salad...

Happy Friday! I hope you all enjoyed your week and are looking forward to the weekend, I know I am! Today, I'm sharing a fresh summer salad, perfect for lunch or even dinner. I made this a few days ago for myself and my two younger sisters and all three of our plates were clean by the end of the meal, so fresh and healthy!
