    2 stalks lemon grass
    6 large Basil leaves
    4 Fresh Mint Leaves
    2 oz. Cilantro Leaves
    1 oz. Fresh Ginger Root
    1 Clementine (juice only)
    2 Tbsp. Rice Vinegar
    4 cups mixed salad greens (spring mix)

Directions

I enjoyed this salad over a bed of mixed baby greens, but imagine it would be a great lettuce wrap as well.

Tried it again as a salad but omitted the oil and it was still great! Added 1 each fresh chopped tomatoes, cucumber, radish, green onion, orange bell pepper, nectarine, apple, and used peanuts that I covered in a Thai pepper sauce. With all the added vegis and fruit, I also added more meat and it served 4 large Salads. My Hubby and kids all love it!
