Does anyone know how many calories this meal contains? Thanks...
Love this recipe!!
This was the best so far. I used the whole yellow pepper. I also added a mandarin orange. It was so yummy!
This was by far the favorite meal - great taste, nice portion and left feeling filled and satisfied. The key is to have quality produce - don't skimp on icky tomatoes or iffy avocados. If cilantro isn't your thing (some think it tastes like soap) substitute with parsley. You won't be disappointed.
Favorite recipe so far, I ate it for dinner the other night after screwing up the beet soup and it was filling enough and fantastic. I had it again for lunch the next day!

This is probably my favorite lunch recipe of the cleanse so far! It's the perfect light lunch and I adore all of the flavors and textures that harmonize just right. Plus, there's no cooking involved and it's super quick & easy to make. A+!
I LOVE IT! It doesnt get any better than this. I love all of the fresh flavors. Re-do for sure on this recipe.
I could eat this EVERYDAY! So good. Lemon juice works just as good as the lime juice would.
Excellent
This is a delicious and light lunch. I am going to use about half the lime next time, though.
My boyfriend and I started this cleansing plan today and I made this salad for our lunch. It was sooooo good I wanted more! We will definately make this again....even when not cleansing! :o)
Yummy!
