    Tips:
    Variations: Feel free to customize the salad by adding other ingredients like sliced cucumbers, cherry tomatoes, or even grilled chicken strips for a heartier meal.
    Storage: This salad is best served fresh. If you need to prepare it ahead, keep the dressing separate until serving to prevent the greens from 
    wilting.
    Dressing Quantity: Adjust the amount of dressing according to your preference. You can store any leftover dressing in the refrigerator for future use.

    This salad is not only vibrant and colorful but also packed with nutrients and flavors that complement each other beautifully. Enjoy your
    green salad with berries!
