Bing Cherry Salad with Almonds


First of all, some exciting news! I want to let you know that tommorrow I will be guest posting over at http://familyfoodies.com/
My thanks to the wonderful Debbie for the opportunity to do it!
Now on to the salad. I tend to eat as many cherries as I can when they are in season, because they are my favorite thing in the world, and the season is so short. I eat tons of them out of hand, but I also use them in lots of recipes. This simple salad is one great way to use them. The crunch of the pea pods and the slivered almonds, the sweetness of the cherries and the tang of the lime dressing are perfect together.
