Tips & Tricks:

  • 🔪 These salads can be made ahead in individual meal prep containers and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Just don’t add dressing until right before serving.
  • 🥩 This recipe uses the leftover beef brisket from the BBQ Brisket dinner. If you aren't making that dinner make extra Salsa Chicken to add to this salad instead.
  • 🥄 Dressing ingredients are not included in the shopping list! Be sure to add them if you choose to make a dressing rather than buying pre-made.
  • 🥗 All salad ingredients are optional! Switch things up, add more of your favorite toppings, or ax any of these toppings you don’t like.

  • 1 pint of cherry tomatoes
