## Tips

- For the dressing, you can use a whisk or a fork if you don't have a frother. The salad gets better throughout the week as it marinates in the fridge. You might also want to add some corn. Other good things to add are bell pepper, jalape
jao, feta, avocado, and lime juice. Some people might prefer cilantro instead of parsley.
- It's super nutritious and no cooking is required. You can put it in a container and it sits in the fridge marinating getting better throughout the week.
