This easy-to-pull-together salad is full of big, bold flavors thanks to citrus, fennel, and red onion. Cooked turkey breast and romaine lettuce complement these ingredients, and create the base they need to really shine. It's a lunch or dinner that comes together in minutes, and the dressing is so good we suggest doubling it to have some extra in the refrigerator to use on salads all week long. The extra dressing will last in the refrigerator for up to 5 days in a sealed container.
