  3. Add all of the salad ingredients to a large bowl and toss with the vinaigrette.
  4. For the vinaigrette - place the ingredients in a mason jar and seal the lid and shake well. You can also place the ingredients in a small bowl and whisk to blend. Best if refrigerated for up to an hour before use.

Can I Make This Salad Ahead Of Time?
This is a great salad to make ahead of time. To do so, finely chop the ingredients and whisk together the salad dressing then store them separately in air-tight containers until you're ready to toss and serve.
How To Store Leftovers
Leftovers of this detox salad can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Leftovers are best if the salad and dressing are stored separately.
