This is probably the best salad I made so far- flavorwise. I wish I could say it just the dressing but combined with the salad ingredients, it’s so delicious. It’s the perfect summer salad and can be paired with anything. I’ve made this for several people and everyone loved it. It’s chopped goodness that is even more amazing with this salad dressing. Pair with your [vegan] hot dogs and burgers or beside your dinner entrée.
TIP: Save excess dressing for your next salad. Store in a mason jar!
