VEGGIES: This is the perfect dish to add the fresh veggies of the season. Go crazy! Add the veggies that your family will love!
ITALIAN DRESSING: I used the store name brand and it was delicious. Olive Garden’s dressing is amazing and homemade would put it over the top.

STORING: Leftovers will stay good in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
