GARDEN SALAD



Garden Salad image

My old school Garden Salad. The one I can make any day because I always have these vegetables on hand! And sometimes, when I feel like getting really fancy, I even add a sprinkle of parsley. ????There really are no rules when it comes to a Garden Salad. Any greens, any vegetables. Make this your own!
