Notes
- Portion: As written, this yields 1 really large salad (about what I'd normally eat for lunch, and I eat a big meal mid-day!), but it can obviously be divided into 2 smaller portions, or scaled up/scaled down to taste. Nutrition information is based on a single large portion that uses every drop of dressing, which you may or may not do.
