This salad is so easy to throw together! Not only is it packed with antioxidants, but contains a lot of protein & calcium! It's great for detoxing and ridding the body of free radicals, thanks to the basil and cucumber! I like using balsamic vinaigrette for dressing since it's low calorie and adds great flavor. You can mix a little olive oil with it or use any dressing you prefer. This salad is great for a main entrée or as a side accompanying an Italian dish.
