This is a very simple, fresh tasting salad that made a nice lunch. I agree with another reviewer and think next time I will decrease the mayonnaise just a little and increase the lime juice. The flavor of the fresh ginger was detectable but subtle to me. I added just a hint of salt to bring the flavors forward. Thanks for the opportunity to try something new.

Wonderfully fresh and light salad. I loved the lime/ginger combo for the dressing. I only made enough for myself with the last of the Beer Can Chicken (recipe #9549). I decreased the mayo and increased the lime juice. It was fab. I will make this again for a light lunch. I would even like it between 2 slices of hearty, multi-grain bread. Thanks for posting.
