Author Notes
I first saw this recipe on a blog I love called 101 Cookbooks. Anyone who knows me knows I have a bit of a cookbook fetish — I have literally hundreds of them. It relaxes me to sit with a stack of them and flip through page after page of beautifully photographed food. And the new Bar Tartine cookbook looks like it won’t disappoint — I’ve already pre-ordered it. The photographs on 101 Cookbooks are so beautiful, I just had to make this dish. I have tried to incorporate more raw food dishes into my diet over the past several years, but I have to admit, I don’t usually love them. This salad, though, is going to become a go-to dish for me — it’s just that good. And that healthy. And that pretty.
I did change the recipe slightly so that I could use the ingredients I had on hand in my fridge; I was too lazy to go to the market. It came out great, so I will share my version with you here.
