Chef's Notes
This recipe can be customized to your liking with anything from your garden - use whatever combination of herbs you like for the vinaigrette, and shred whatever vegetables you may have to go in the salad - cucumbers, peppers, or even fold some freshly chopped lettuce into the mix at the end.
