Talk about a BIG salad - this easily serves 4 or more. It is so loaded with everything that a little goes a long way. Instead of 1/2 large tomato, I used some halved grape tomatoes. Other than that, I made this exactly as posted, using a balsamic vinaigrette. Very hearty and delicious! Made for Spring PAC 2012.
