Note
For best results, ensure the spinach is completely dry before dressing to prevent wilting.
You can substitute the turkey with grilled chicken or chickpeas for a vegetarian option.
Add a simple vinaigrette made of olive oil, lemon juice, oregano, salt, and pepper for extra flavor.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Keep the dressing separate until ready to eat.
