Notes
Fresh: Always dress salad just before serving to keep salad greens fresh and crisp. If you prepare salad ahead of time, store the dressing separately and toss right before serving.
Apple: Slice an apple just before assembling the salad to prevent it from browning.
Dressing: Toss salad with dressing just before serving, as letting it sit for long can cause the greens to wilt.
