Obviously this salad works beautifully among hearty fall/winter foods as a lighter option, but it also makes for a great summer salad too, similar to my broccoli salad. Serve it at a cookout with pulled pork or burgers for a crunchy, warm weather side. Or, if you want to make a meal out of the salad itself, you can serve it topped with your protein of choice; seared chicken breasts would be great!
