Notes

Feel free to mix it up! You can use kale or arugula in place of baby spinach for a different flavor.
If you prefer more protein, try incorporating grilled chicken or dried fruits for added sweetness.
Store leftover salad in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days, but keep the dressing separate to maintain freshness.
