Note

The original recipe referenced a vinaigrette from an appetizer recipe. Use your favorite basic vinaigrette or make a simple one with olive oil, vinegar, salt, and pepper.

For added protein, consider adding grilled chicken, tofu, or chickpeas.

This salad is best served immediately after dressing to keep the greens crisp.

You can substitute the mushrooms with roasted vegetables like zucchini or bell peppers for variety.
