SMOKED SALMON SALAD RECEIPE, NICOISE-STYLE
Author: Marilou Robinson Portland OR
Serves: 6-8
- 1 bag (10-12 oz.) romaine lettuce, torn bite-size
- 1 head butter lettuce, torn bite-size
- 6-oz. package Traditional Alder-Smoked Salmon, cut into chunks
- 1 package (10-oz.) frozen green beans, cooked, drained, chilled
- 1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved (use red and yellow if possible)
- 1 small green bell pepper, cut into rings
- 1 small red onion, sliced, separated into rings
- 3 hard-cooked eggs, peeled, cut into wedges
- 3 small red-skinned potatoes, cooked, chilled, quartered
- ½ cup ripe olives
- ¾ cup bottled red-wine vinaigrette salad dressing
- 2 tablespoons capers
- Line a large platter with the lettuce; mound smoked salmon in the center. Arrange beans,
- tomatoes, pepper rings, onion rings, egg wedges, potatoes and olives over the lettuce,
- around the salmon. Cover platter and chill at least 2 hours. Just before serving, drizzle
- with salad dressing, and sprinkle capers over.
- The ingredient list looks long, but none of it takes much time to prepare, and it can all be
- done ahead of time. Because this salad is one that needs to be made ahead and chilled, it
- is a good choice for Sunday night supper. When guests arrive, heat an assortment of fancy
- rolls (from your favorite bakery), and relax with the company. Everyone will be impressed
- and well-fed.
- The recipe can easily serve as many as you like--just increase the amount of ingredients and
- use a bigger platter.
