Chef’s Tips:

• Experiment with fresh and dried herbs and grated cheeses to add more flavor and variety to your salad.
• Feel free to replace some of the vegetables in this ingredient list with the ones you have on hand. Play around with what’s fresh in your area. Make this salad your very own!
• If you slice beets thinly enough, then you don’t need to cook them before tossing them into a salad. I recommend using a mandolin to get everything super thin.
