Tips:

- If you're using a strong-flavored dressing, such as the Roquefort dressing in this recipe, use it sparingly. You don't want to overpower the delicate flavors of the greens.
- Add some crumbled cheese or nuts to your salad for extra flavor and texture. Some good choices include blue cheese, feta cheese, walnuts, and almonds.
- Serve your salad immediately after dressing it. This will help to prevent the greens from wilting.
