Loved the salad! I used little gems lettuce and a little wild arugula from my garden instead of parsley.
This is excellent. We used romaine instead of arugula because that’s what we had. I am not much of a salad fan, but my wife made this and it could change my mind about salad!
Delicious! I did add a thinly sliced shallot to the lemon juice and let it sit for about 10 minutes before adding olive oil. We have a huge tray of dates to eat so happy to find this recipe!
