Three Hungry Boys Chopped Italian Salad

May 3, 2016 By Liza Cannata Leave a Comment

IMG_3213I am kind of obsessed with this salad lately.  I have been making a double batch monday morning and leaving in the fridge un-tossed so I can eat it throughout the week.  What we have here is romaine, radicchio, crunchy veggies, cheddar and basil all tossed with a tangy red wine vinaigrette. YUM!  My version of an American/Italian chopped salad.  Feel free to add some chopped meat, like turkey or salami.  Perfect for a main dish salad.  Enjoy!
