Marinate your tomatoes before adding them to your salad. You will not believe how good this makes your lettuce taste.

This is a copycat recipe for Portillo’s Chopped Salad from Chicago. Make this for your friends from Chicago. They will appreciate a good, chopped salad!

I used heirloom tomatoes and cherry tomatoes. The combination of both gives a great flavor. Serve with toasted bread drizzled with olive oil to sop up all the liquid.

In August, figs are in season in SoCal.  This salad uses a simple lettuce mix with figs as the star.

If you like a little spice in your salad, this is the dressing for you.  Top with avocado, Cotija cheese, and some lime tortilla chips for a little extra.
