This was time consuming to prep because the julienning took a while. But it looked lovely and smelled heavenly. Only problem was that the taste was SO tart from the large amount of lemon that it was hard to eat. I think I'd make it again but change the dressing around. (I will say that, after it had set and we ate a bit I tried to add a little splenda to offset the tartness. That did not work at all and just made it taste weird. So please don't try that!) This one has potential, but I think it needs to be tweaked a bit. Thanks for a healthy one to try!
