This is my go to salad that I make weekly. You can prepare enough ingredients to have a second or third salad during the week. This recipe is estimated for 1 person so scale up accordingly. Feel free to substitute walnuts or macadamias for the almonds. This is a very filling salad that can be eaten as a main dish.
