July 2, 2022 at 3:57 pmThis is so delish! I used what we had on hand. Leftover shredded iceberg lettuce, some shredded mixed greens, and chives from the garden with slivered almonds and feta. It would be good with any combination of nuts/seeds or cheese. I really wish I could share a picture. It was so colourful!
