I make this salad mostly in the summer months as we always have fresh veggies here in Minnesota during that time. But if I can find quality produce during the winter months, I make sure this delicious and healthy salad is on our menu rotation. I love how bright and colorful it is, and all the fresh herbs, and also that it can be so versatile. But I think my favorite part are the homemade croutons which add the perfect crunch! You can serve this as a side salad with dinner or all on it's for a light and super healthy lunch.
