2 tbsp of extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp of balsamic vinegar
Pinch of salt

Notes
This salad must be eaten cold.
This salad can last up to 3 days in the fridge.
I highly recommend not adding the dressing until before you eat it, if you're preparing it for meal-prep. This will avoid the leafy greens getting soggy.
Boil the potatoes the day before, or a few hours in advance, so they can cool down. Cold potatoes have resistant starch which has probiotic properties, meaning is good for your gut health!
