GFF's House Salad

This salad reminisces the simply soulful flavor of legendary San Francisco jazz singer Faith Winthrop’s cooking. Add a smidge of crushed garlic to the dressing if desired, but definitely toast extra walnuts; stored at room temperature in a tightly sealing container, they’re great to grab and use anytime.
