Notes

Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight for up to 3 days. But ideally, it's best to consume immediately after tossing the salad.

Make Ahead: You can make the dressing up to 7 days in advance and you can prepare the salad up to 1 day in advance.

Substitutes: For best results, follow the recipe as is. However you can play around with the ingredients to switch out the greens, the nuts and the cheese.
