  • 1/2 cup Purple Onion Diced.

Notes

Melissa's Modifications:
You can add other veggies to this salad, such as sweet peppers, artichokes, and/or hearts of palm (which we love) for an added boost. Many other veggies pair nicely with this salad.
For our favorite light vinaigrette—use olive oil, lemon juice, and spices of your choice. A splash Balsamic or apple cider vinegar can also be added to taste.
