Play in the Kitchen!

I love to play in the kitchen. No, I really do, I’m not kidding!

I enjoy making up new recipes though sometimes I find it hard to find the time to do this. But when I do have the time, I love it so much. The kitchen is this mama’s playground!  Allowing myself time to play in the kitchen (when time allows) is a form of stress relief for me because I enjoy it. This also gives me the excuse to pretend to be chef for a few hours for my family;) Or, as in this case, for just  a few minutes since this is a fast recipe. I’m a busy mom so I want easy and fast recipes. I find I really need easy delicious recipes to keep up with our fast-paced lifestyle with three boys!

Cooking is one creative outlet I find very rewarding because I get to eat it too. Cooking is an art form, an art that I get to eat!

Cilantro Lime Salad Dressing….Yum!

I love this using Briannas Creamy Cilantro Lime dressing over veggies, and not just over lettuce (though that is good too). This is an easy and healthy recipe, and very tasty. Exactly what I want quick, fast, yum!

I was given the opportunity to try out Briannas Homestyle Creamy Cilantro Lime dressing for free to give my opinion on it. I was excited to try it and I give it a big thumbs up! This is a yummy dressing and great as a dipping sauce for veggies too.

I love adding the zing of lime flavors to recipes. Lime is a top favorite flavor for me. I’m a fan of making veggies luxurious and adding this creamy lime dressing to a veggie bowl accomplishes just that:)

Add in Some Protein

This salad is a vegetarian dish, however the dressing does contain milk and eggs so it is not vegan. The dish could be used as a side dish in a meal or in the case of a lacto ovo vegetarian it could be the main course when topped with slices of hard-boiled egg and cheese. The other idea I want to try adding to it is garbanzo beans. That sounds delish!

• 1 Tablespoon jalapeno pepper finely chopped

Notes

Extra Information

Make this salad the day you plan to eat it to avoid browning of the avocado. The avocado pieces do start to turn brown the next day, however, it's still yummy! This dressing is a new product so if your store carries Briannas dressing ask them to add this dressing to their shelves. I totally recommend it and I think you will love it.
