Green Crunch Salad with EVOO Homemade Dressing

When you pair with this homemade dressing made with SOOC extra virgin olive oil, it elevates the salad even more by providing a rich, healthier and smooth dressing. Its monounsaturated fats not only enhance the taste but also offer health benefits, such as supporting heart health. This salad came together super quick and will for sure be added to our “salads don’t have to be boring” list. It also is one of the few salads that will hold and is also great the next day and won’t get soggy!
