This salad is my twist on California Pizza Kitchen's Tricolore Salad. CPK serves it over the top of a hot baked pizza dough and it's really a fantastic combination. I served it with dinner on Christmas, jazzing it up with some diced beets and hard-boiled eggs. It's really great with slivers of Parmesan cheese instead of the egg, but we had some strong cheese on the meat, so I opted to not use it in the salad. It's really a very simple salad, but pretty and very tasty. To serve over pizza, you can make my dough recipe, top it with some Parmesan (no sauce) and bake until golden brown. Top with tossed salad.
I used quantities here, but just adjust to the number of servings you need. Mine served six.
