This is something I like to order if going out to lunch with friends, it has always been something I have avoided to cook mainly because I thought it would be too hard, but let me assure you it isn’t. It is actually really easy!

What a winner it was – I was disappointed I made such a small amount, I could have eaten it for days, lol. You could also turn this into a simple vegetarian dish by leaving out the meat.

For ingredients for the salad, you can use baby spinach, thinly sliced capsicum, coriander, thinly sliced carrots, sliced cucumber.

If you’ve realised you don’t have any limes, but have some doTERRA lime essential oil – then simply use a drop fo this instead.

It is no secret that we love our doTERRA oils, and part of that love is because they are 100% food grade oils. Personally, we would not trust any other brand to be food grade and as safe as doTERRA, so please, if you use another brand of oils you will need to ensure they are of the highest quality and approved for use within food.
