Italian in Season Salad

A chopped salad is so satisfying. It can be a light main course or a side dish. I love to serve it simply, with either a hearty soup or a hunk of crunchy whole-grain bread. I vary the veggies with the season: cucumbers in summer, but not in fall or winter. I swap green cabbage in for iceberg lettuce once the weather cools. Cherry tomatoes are key for me, no matter the season.
