The art of a composed salad

A simple, classic broccoli salad with bacon that serves as a great fast side dish for any party or potluck. Includes a simple homemade dressing.

A composed salad, or salade composée, is one of my favorite ways to feed friends and family come the summer months. This edible art form is arranged on a large platter rather than tossed in a bowl, creating a stunning centerpiece for your table and allowing guests an interactive dining experience as they serve themselves from the beautiful bounty. You can make a composed salad out of just about anything- I've made composed cobbs, composed fajita salads, Greek salad inspired arrangements…

My recipe for French Potato Salad is my take on this classic dish and it is one you won't want to miss! I love the fresh herbs and the bright flavors in this dish and I know you will too. Save it so you can make it again and again.
