This delicious salad is probably best described as “summer in a bowl”.
By Shuchi Mittal
What is there not to love about raspberries. They are red, juicy, slightly tangy, work well with drinks and food alike and most of all, they bring on the much awaited crisp blue summer days! Everything from raspberry pies to cocktails are personal favorites of mine, so how could I not toss up a salad with them. This quick simple recipe was a a rather welcome start to the freshness of summer.
