Chop-chop Salad
Prep Time: 20 minutes
This salad is from my book, Amy’s Table: Food for Family and Friends.
The dressing for this salad is a great all-purpose vinaigrette. Double the recipe and keep it in the refrigerator to use as both a salad dressing and a marinade for meats. The dressing can be made several days in advance; refrigerate until ready to use.
Directions
In the bowl of a blender or food processor, combine the vinegar, mustard and herbs. Process until well combined. With the motor running, add the oil in a steady stream. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
In a large bowl combine the chopped salad ingredients. Toss with dressing; serve.
