"Are you in a summer heat wave? We are. As soon as I walk outside I’m immediately hugged by hotness (and no I’m not talking about Bradley Cooper or Ryan Gosling, I’d die). This Summer Lovin’ Salad will get you through the heat. It’s the last recipe of my Keep Your Kitchen Cool Series and it’s a huge hit. It takes two bowls, a knife and fork – so you’re not heating up your house and you’re also not doing dishes!"

To Make the Dijon Lemon Honey Dressing
Step 1
In a bowl, whisk together all of the ingredients. This dressing will be strong in flavor but that is necessary for the raw spinach and arugula. A heavy-handed drizzle is all you really need. This makes 4-6 servings.
