Feel free to add croutons, rice sticks and toasted nuts. Anything for flavor and texture. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Add fruit for natural sweetness. <\/strong>If desired, add fresh berries in the summer or dried fruits in the winter. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Use a flavorful dressing.<\/strong> Homemade or high-quality store-bought dressing yields a more delicious recipe.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Serving the dressing. <\/strong>The dressing can be served on the side, but the blend of it tossed with the dressing sets this restaurant-worth version apart from others.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Do not overdress the salad.<\/strong> Drizzle the dressing around the rim of the bowl then toss to evenly coat, this will prevent the greens from becoming overdressed. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Chop the salad. <\/strong>For a different texture, you can chop all of the ingredients into smaller pieces. This also really helps the flavors to marinate together. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Add a protein.<\/strong> To turn this into a main course, I suggest adding a protein like grilled chicken, steak, or shrimp. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Use my <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dinnerin321.com\/perfect-peel-boiled-eggs\/\">perfect hard-boiled egg recipe<\/a>! <\/strong>This recipe includes hard boiled eggs and my recipe makes sure they turn out great every time. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dinnerin321.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/IMG_3350-1024x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"A peeled boiled egg.\" class=\"wp-image-15341\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dinnerin321.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/IMG_3350-1024x1024.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.dinnerin321.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/IMG_3350-300x300.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.dinnerin321.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/IMG_3350-150x150.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/www.dinnerin321.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/IMG_3350-768x768.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.dinnerin321.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/IMG_3350-500x500.jpeg 500w, https:\/\/www.dinnerin321.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/IMG_3350-720x720.jpeg 720w, https:\/\/www.dinnerin321.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/IMG_3350-360x360.jpeg 360w, https:\/\/www.dinnerin321.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/IMG_3350-180x180.jpeg 180w, https:\/\/www.dinnerin321.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/IMG_3350-96x96.jpeg 96w, https:\/\/www.dinnerin321.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/IMG_3350.jpeg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Storage_Make-Ahead_Instructions\"><\/span>Storage &amp; Make-Ahead Instructions <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>For storing leftovers in the refrigerator:<\/strong> Place in an airtight container and consume within one day if the salad has already been dressed for freshness. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>To make ahead:<\/strong> Store the lettuce greens separately from the toppings and dressing.
