Notes
I recommend shredding your own cheese for the best flavor in this salad recipe. This salad can be made up to 1 day before serving it.
Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to serve.
It's best served within 1-2 days as the ingredients will become soggy from the dressing in the salad.
