Notes
I like to use pizza crust for this salad, but if you don’t have pizza crust, you can use croutons or a baguette instead. I use a flatbread crust. I bake it until crispy then brush it with a little olive oil to keep it from drying out. Then I slice it into triangles and serve a few with each salad.
