Best Big Country Salad Recipes
BIG COUNTRY SALAD
Here is a salad to evoke late-night meals at the restaurant Odeon, in downtown Manhattan, in the era of "Bright Lights, Big City." There the country salad is somewhat smaller, and serves as a fine introduction to a plate of steak frites. But made larger, and piled high on a plate, it makes for a delicious dinner best accompanied by a glass of slightly chilled red wine. Need more protein? Put an egg on it!
