Note 1 – A julienne peeler is an inexpensive solution that will make light work of cutting your vegetables. It’s my go-to in the kitchen! The one I use is linked for you here.
Make ahead – This salad is perfect for on-the-go lunches. Make it ahead and store the dressing separately to drizzle on top when you are ready to serve. Keep in the fridge for up to 3 days.
