Additional Notes/Tips

  1. For an extra crunch, toss in some roasted pumpkin seeds or chickpeas.
  2. Don’t have goat cheese? Feta or blue cheese works wonders too.
  3. If you're feeling adventurous, add some roasted sweet potato chunks to the mix.
  4. For extra sweetness, drizzle a little maple syrup instead of honey.
  5. This salad pairs perfectly with grilled chicken or salmon for a complete meal.
