Warm Winter Bread Salad

I want my family to eat healthy, so a big, hearty salad is one of our favorite go-to-meals.  But in the winter when it’s cold outside, a salad of chilled lettuce and vegetables loses its appeal.  All I want is something warm!

Thank goodness for this Warm Winter Bread Salad from MarthaStewart.com.  In addition to hot, homemade croutons that you toss in just before serving, this salad combines winter salad greens, like radicchio, red-leaf lettuce, frisee and endive, with hazelnuts, bacon, Parmesan cheese, and Martha’s tarragon and thyme herb vinaigrette to create a warm, filling, and healthy side dish.  Served with grilled chicken breasts, shrimp, or steak, this is a quick and easy meal that is guaranteed to keep the winter chill away.
