Trader Joe’s Ultimate Salad

One of our favorite things about Trader Joe’s is how many fabulous specialty items they have that make putting meals together so fun and a bit special! Two of our favorite products are the rosemary, croissant croutons, and the rosemary marcona almonds. We love serving a big salad for a girls night- line all of your ingredients across the lettuce base and then toss with dressing right before serving.

Here is what we used- all ingredients were measured with our hearts and are from Trader Joe’s💫

Bag of Little Gem Lettuce, thinly sliced
Bag of Baby Lettuce Mix
Baby Cucumbers, halved and sliced into moons
Mini San Marzano Plum Tomatoes, halved
Uncured, applewood, smoked salami, diced
Rosemary Croissant Croutons
Rosemary Marcone Almonds, crushed if you like bite sized
Marinated Mini Mozzarella Balls
Marinated Artichoke pieces

For the dressing:
1/2 cup marinade from the mozzarella jar
1 heaping Tablespoon Dijon mustard
Pinch of Kosher Salt
3 Tablespoons White Balsamic Vinegar

Mix all ingredients to a jar with a lid (or the mozzarella container and SHAKEEE!!
