Number Of Ingredients 12

½ cup extra virgin olive oil
¼ cup fresh lemon juice

2 tablespoons fresh lime juice

This salad is a great way to use up leftover chicken or pork. I also like to add black beans or corn for a heartier salad. It's a great meal prep option, too. I just make a big batch on the weekend and then eat it throughout the week.

I'm not a huge fan of cilantro, but I love the way it brightens up this salad. If you're not a fan of cilantro, you can substitute another herb, such as parsley or mint.
