Beet and Baby Arugula Salad with Key Lime Pepper Dressing


I. Love. Beets. This salad is refreshing and ready-for summer with its slightly bitter baby arugula, balanced by a sweet key lime dressing. All flavors combine to create a zesty, bittersweet treat!

Frosting … Continue reading Egg and Dairy Free White Cake with Chocolate Frosting
