***********************
There are lots of possible additions to this basic salad, but keep in mind that it should remain a simple and light salad to accompany a meal.
Toss in some garlic-rubbed croutons or a handful of chopped toasted nuts (like walnuts, pine nuts or hazelnuts), pitted black olives, etc.
