Lemon poppy seed tomato salad: perfect summer salad
June 7, 2014The lemon poppy seed tomato salad I’m going to share with you all today is the perfect summer salad.
The weather is getting warmer outside. Who wants to slave over a hot stove or oven all day? Not this gal!
I like salads in the Summer. Like a lot! They’re refreshing and delicious and quick to prepare. Don’t forget healthy! You can (almost) always feel proud to be eating a salad. Of course, there are exceptions- some salads are that healthy. But this lemon poppy seed tomato salad is not of those!
The lemon poppy seed tomato salad is indeed quite healthy! Filled with vegetables and a light dressing, this salad is easy on the waistline. Topped with cannellini beans, it’s also high in protein & fiber.

Thanks for letting me know about your link party! Have a great day!
I love how light and healthy this looks! This would be perfect for those hot summer nights when you don’t really want to eat anything too heavy. I am imagining this salad paired with a grilled tuna steak, enjoyed on the porch with a white wine spritzer. Yummy!
Yes, I love the picture you just painted! 🙂 Have a great day Renee!
