- Arugula: Your favorite leafy green will work as a sub for the arugula.
- Goat Cheese: If you need this salad to be dairy-free, skip the cheese or use a vegan cheese.
- Pecans: Feel free to sub in any nut or seed in place of the pecans.
- Toasted pecans: If you want to toast the pecans simply spread them out on a baking sheet and toast in a 350°F oven for about 6-8 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool.
- Dressing: Want to switch up the dressing? This creamy poppyseed dressing, red wine vinaigrette, white balsamic vinaigrette or creamy balsamic vinaigrette would be delicious on this salad!
