Notes

Sub any berries or nuts you like - blackberries, raspberries, walnuts, sliced almonds. Whatever you like. 
This dressing is super simple, but if you'd rather use store-bought, any red wine vinaigrette, french dressing, or raspberry vinaigrette would be good on this. 
I didn't have any, but I bet blue cheese, feta, or burrata would be a delicious contrast to this sweet salad.
