Notes
- Make-Ahead: You can make this spring salad up to 1 day before. Just be sure it is not yet mixed with the dressing. In addition, it would be best to wait to slice the avocado for serving.
- How to Store: Cover and keep it in the refrigerator undressed for up to 3 days. This will not freeze.
- Feel free to swap out or remove any salad ingredients to what you’d like.
- This salad is much more malleable and can be made with whatever or how many ever of the ingredients you’d like. Make this salad work for you and your liking.
