Notes
Tips
- You can switch up the lettuce and use your favorite, kale, mixed greens, spinach, iceberg all work!
- You can switch up the protein and use up leftover chicken, deli turkey, or even deli ham. I've tried them all!
- If you're making in advance, do not dress this until you're ready to enjoy. This will prevent lettuce and strawberries from becoming soggy.
- If you are vegan, just leave out the summer sausage.
- High Altitude – Follow the recipe as noted.
