Notes

Recipe Notes: Remember to taste and adjust the dressing to your preference. Some like it tangier, some prefer a mellow flavor – the beauty of home cooking is in the personalization.

Special Tips: Always use fresh ingredients for the best flavor. Allow the salad to rest before serving to let the flavors blend together. Feel free to adjust the dressing ingredients to your taste.
