SUBSTITUTIONS: There are many ways to modify this salad. You can use tarragon vinegar instead of apple cider vinegar. One variation is to bake salmon, season it with a little lemon, and place it on top of the beans before adding the dressing. You may need to make a little more dressing if you are adding salmon. Also try adding tomatoes, if tolerated, or avocados.
