Pizza Parlor Salad
Serves 6
I could never understand why my guys would turn up their noses at salads I served them, yet lustily dig into the aluminum trays of salad that came with a pizza delivery. Then I decided to stop grappling—and shamelessly created a tastier facsimile at home. Here the lettuce is crisp-crunchy, devoid of any weird, unidentifiable vegetables, and doused with my mama’s delicious salad dressing. Photo on page 67.
