Don't know if I would really call it a salad, but this was quite delicious. I'd definitely make it (half recipe) for something green on the plate.
Made the dressing as per the recipe. Added in 1/2 thin slice red onion and a small basket of cherry tomatoes. Added some much needed color and tasted great with the rabe.
