Lime Dressing

  • Juice three limes. You will have already zested one on the limes and added the zest to the diced fruit and vegetables (see above).
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, salt, garlic powder, and sugar.
  • Pour the dressing over the chopped fruit and veggies. gently toss.
  • Cover and refrigerate till ready to serve. This will keep for about one week in an airtight container in your refrigerator.

Notes

Make sure the fruit and vegetables are chopped very fine. 
If you want to substitute the sugar, you may use artificial sweetener or choice or real maple syrup. Start with a small amount. For the maple syrup, I am suggesting 1/2 teaspoon. You can always add more.
