Italian Chopped Salad

You guys are so into the meal salads! I love to see your photos. I know they are not the best for kids, but I made a note about that below. You can get a thin, consistent shave of the vegetables with a mandolin, but careful knife skills work too.

I am writing in a recipe for oven-dried tomatoes, but if you don't have the time or they're out of season, use sun-dried tomatoes packed in olive oil.

My heart wants to add fresh croutons here buttttttt I didn’t. If you have some fresh bread around, do it! I’m aware we’re off season with the tomatoes, but I’m still getting them in my veggie box so that’s my excuse. A jar of sun dried tomatoes is a great alternative!
