Rainbow Vegetable Chopped Salad
with creamy tahini Italian vinaigrette
We're showing some Pride with a rainbow of toppings on our simple vegetable-packed salads (and it’s a fun way for kids to get involved), but feel free to assemble the salads any way you'd like.
Smarts: Because the stalks of broccoli can be tough, be sure to cut the florets down into bite-sized pieces. Steaming the florets in the microwave before adding them to the salads also insures they will be tender enough to eat.

My 3 and 5 year olds made their own and then ate it all (including veggies) without complaining. That’s a win in my book! Delicious.
