Additional recipe notes
This makes some extra dressing, depending on your preference you may or may not need all of it. You can add in diced or shredded rotisserie or cooked chicken to make this salad more of a heartier meal. If serving as a main if you up the lettuce to 2 1/2 or even 3 hearts of romaine, it will feed about 3-4 people.
