The flavors in this salad are bright and strong.

This sauce is delicious on many things: slaws, vegetables (steamed, boiled, roasted), cucumbers, grilled or broiled eggplant, rice, tofu, seafood and meat.  Yields about 2/3 cup 1/3 cup freshly squeezed lime...

Having a jar of this vinaigrette in the fridge, ready for lettuces, raw and cooked vegetables, or grains and beans that need enlivening can be the key to turning something meh into a meal.

This is a blueprint for using whatever odds and ends you have in the vegetable crisper, or your CSA share.
