Word on the street is that spring is here and we all know what that means; SALAD SEASON! There is nothing I love more than a salad on a spring afternoon, so I thought I would bring my newest obsession to the table. Speaking of, if you're bringing this to the table, be prepared to be everyone's favorite.
This salad is very vibrant, pretty, and fulfilling. For one, it is made with radicchio (everyone's new favorite lettuce, people now make pink cesar salad with it!) and it just screams spring. It is also paired with a raspberry vinaigrette which is the most ballsy vinaigrette I have ever made in my life. So If you're ready, let's jump into this quick and extremely easy salad.
