This looks looks to be very tasty and healthy. Do you ever add any winter greens to this salad? Say spinach or lettuce?

Guess you could experiment and add anything that sounds/tastes good

Drooling all over the keyboard! I see it alone, I see it on a pile of greens, and I see it on a roll.

THANKS

Because Nomads are snooty foodies, what beverage pairing do you recommend with this gourmet dish?
