Notes
Make it a meal by serving this green salad with berries with chicken, steak or salmon on top.
Dress the salad just before serving if prepping ahead of time. Use half the dressing to start when adding it so as not to overdo it. You can also add the dressing after serving it so that everyone has their desired amount.
Other add-ins to give your salad a boost: These sourdough croutons are AMAZING. Chopped bacon, sliced almonds, golden raisins, or even a grain like quinoa. I have also added some red onion to this salad before--it's not everyone's favorite, but I quite enjoy it!
