Place the salad ingredients into a large chilled salad bowl. Just prior to serving dress the salad with 1/2 of the dressing. Serve additional dressing as a side for those who require more.
Place the ingredients for the vinaigrette in a sealed container so that it can be shaken to emulsify.
I happened to use a container I kept for sentimental reasons from my mom’s kitchen after she left us. It brings her into my kitchen when I cook.
Results…a delicious, summer salad that will be a “Keeper” at our house. Don’t be afraid to refrigerate leftovers for the next day. This salad retained it’s flavor and freshness for our lunch the next day.
Recipe Notes
I found that there was no need for additional dressing. I refrigerated the dressing and used it later when I made the salad again.
