When I was in high school, we would drive an hour to Berkeley for concerts, nose rings, vintage shopping on Telegraph Avenue, and that salad. It was a colorful, fully loaded leafy salad we all loved, and it would power our day. Crunchy lettuces, mixed beans, seeds, carrot coins, and croutons were all staples, with a creamy, but not-too-creamy, zesty dressing. If you’re looking for a meal-size salad, this is it. And, by all means, if you have radicchio, add some of that as well. This is great with the orange-tahini dressing included here.
