Apricot Salad
Lets face it salads can be boring. Sometimes I am just not in the mood for salad to be the only thing I can order to eat at a restaurant. But on the other hand I love a good salad bar. I love when I am in control of my own salad destiny. Sometimes I crave fresh greens. Today was one of those days so I whipped together this beauty. This Apricot Salad is simple and refreshing. The brightness of the citrus dressing shines through. Walnuts and hemp seed add a nutty flavor and add texture that pairs well with the dried apricot in the salad.
