I know this is a really summery salad, but it's also perfect for anytime that you want to eat something really healthy, tasty and the best part - low fat! I also like how versatile it is, you can serve it with chicken, or just the berries. Add a chunk of French Baguette or Peasant Bread  and you have a meal just like they serve at Panera.
