Notes
Making Ahead: We like to make the salad and dressing the day prior to serving. Then the day of serving we combine the dressing and salad ingredients. This prevents the texture of the fresh ingredients from getting mushy.
Serve as a salsa, topping to burgers, or on its own as a great salad recipe.
