Notes
Marinated Onions are by No Crumbs left and they are delicious. I highly recommend them in this recipe. The nutrition information for all recipes is calculated using my fitness pal. Dressing makes more than what is appropriate for this salad. Serving is calculated with 2 tbsp. of dressing. Please note that nutrition is an estimate and is calculated using the exact brands and ingredients I used in the recipe when I made it. It's meant to be a guideline. Salad is meant to be an entire dinner sized meal.
