France Recipe
This lovely entrée salad originated in Nice, France, a beautiful resort on the Cote d`Azur (French Riviera). The classic version uses only fresh, raw vegetables, but numerous variations have been developed that incorporate cooked produce. This delightful version sticks close to the original, with only the addition of boiled potatoes and green beans. Top it with Lemon Mustard Vinaigrette for the perfect tangy enhancement.
