Crisp lettuce, cubed mozzarella, and diced salami in a purple wine French dressing. So colourful, so vibrant, and so so good!
Salad for dinner? Sure, please!
This salad is something however boring right here. Loaded with crisp romaine and radicchio lettuce, cubed mozzarella, dry Italian salami and a vibrant purple wine French dressing, this salad will knock your socks off.

And the perfect half? Prep time is saved to a minimal as there’s zero cooking concerned and all the pieces may be diced/prepped/assembled beforehand.
