Last week, I feel like Barclay and I took a very important step forward together in our relationship.

Um, yum! I love a good salad and this one sounds delish! I can see why it is a favorite!


This sounds delicious!!! I love anything with artichokes and pine nuts!


Ahh, this I need! :)


I made this salad last night, minus the pine nuts, so delicious! This salad must be a mom thing, she would always make this for me growing up, which was passed down to her from her aunt. We forgot how good it was! Thanks for the recipe!


This sounds so fabulous! Those artichokes and those pine nuts…best salad EVER.

Thanks Alexa — we hope you enjoy this as much as we do! :)


I can imagine why it has become a family favorite! Love artichokes…I find it hard to find the perfect salad combination with that, though. So I’m glad you found a recipe that works!


Hayley @ Gimme Some Oven — May 16th, 2016 @ 8:48 pm


Thanks Fernando — we hope you can give this a try sometime!


…and guess what’s already on menu for next weekend?!


Hi! I’m from Portugal and your blog “travels” all the way here every day. It’s such an inspiration! Wonderful recipes and photos :) Congratulations and I hope you keep doing this for a long time. Wish you all the best!

Thanks Libby — we hope you enjoy it!


Your family definitely does salads right! This looks GREAT!

Thanks Katrina — we hope you enjoy!


This looks so tasty, I want to try this recipe out. Thanks for the share!

Thanks Ryan — we hope you enjoy!


Had been craving a new salad recipe–so just made it for dinner this evening. It is delicious.


Lovely Salad! The red-leaf lettuce is lovely. I guess there isn’t much difference between the two (the green one) but still.. maybe the colour has something to do with it :) I would try this and maybe adding some sweet corn would have an effect. Cheers.


This salad looks wonderful! I love how simple it is, and I bet it would pair beautifully with just about any meal, especially with a gathering!


Hayley @ Gimme Some Oven — May 16th, 2016 @ 8:09 pm


Thank you Margaret — we hope you enjoy!


Looks yummy! I’d nix the pine nuts only for the price tho’. Thanks for sharing!


Hayley @ Gimme Some Oven — May 16th, 2016 @ 8:09 pm


You’re welcome Donna — we hope you enjoy it! :)


I’m curious about this salad as I haven’t eaten much artichoke so far, but that Parmesan dressing is a strong selling point ;-)


Glad the salad/or Barclay passed muster ;-)


Hayley @ Gimme Some Oven — May 16th, 2016 @ 7:57 pm


We hope you can give it a try sometime Stella — it’s soooo yummy! :)


This is so similar to my family’s “it” salad!! And pickled artichokes are one of my favorite ingredients, for salad, for pizza, for bowls…so much flavor!


Loved this recipe. This will be my go to salad from now on. Thanks so much for sharing.


Hayley @ Gimme Some Oven — May 16th, 2016 @ 3:25 pm


Thanks Kathy — we’re so happy you loved it! :)


You MUST make this salad and the dressing. Thanks for a great salad recipe


I absolutely love how colorful this salad is!! So lovely ;)


Hayley @ Gimme Some Oven — May 22nd, 2016 @ 7:30 pm


Thank you! We hope you get a chance to try it — it tastes lovely too! :)


I am not a salad fan. But I saw this and wanted something healthy and light for dinner. This was amazing! I added in some black olives, but forgot the roasted red peppers. I can’t wait to make it again with them. This is definitely going to be added into the regular dinner rotation!


Hayley @ Gimme Some Oven — May 23rd, 2016 @ 8:08 am


We’re so glad to hear you enjoyed this Jennifer — thanks for giving it a try! :)


Made this last night with company over. It was a big hit. Everyone loved it. My husband got into the leftover at bedtime and finished it off.


I used toasted almonds instead of pine nuts but that was the only difference. Will definitely make again.


Hayley @ Gimme Some Oven — June 14th, 2016 @ 5:44 pm


We’re so glad it was a hit, Robyn — thanks for sharing with us! :)


Hi Hayley! I can’t wait to make this salad. It has everything I love in it. I do have a question, though: do you use marinated artichoke hearts, or the type that are just packed in water? Thanks!


Hayley @ Gimme Some Oven — June 19th, 2016 @ 10:19 pm


Hi Tess! Thanks for your comment, but this is actually Ali’s blog and recipe (I just help out with comments and such). :) We have used both, but the marinated ones are the tastiest, for sure! :)


Last week, I feel like Barclay and I took a very important step forward together in our relationship.


I introduced him to my family…


…’s favorite salad. ;)


Knowing his obsession already with big green salads (the guy amazingly chooses them more often than I do) and artichokes (hands-down one of his all-time favorite foods), I figured this one wouldn’t be a stretch. But still. This salad is a verrrrry important part of our family, showing up at nearly every extended family gathering, always being made in a huge batch so that everyone can return for seconds, and near and dear to every single family member’s heart. So I needed to know they would get along great.


Sure enough, it was a salad match made in heaven. ♥


My original photo for this recipe, circa 2012, after our family made it for Christmas. :)


Of course, I knew it would be. ;)


Everyone loves this salad.


I think that my aunt is actually the one who came up with it years and years ago, and our entire family instantly fell in love with it. Either she or my mom would make it — and still make it to this day — for every just about every single holiday and occasion that the extended family gathers together. And anyone else who happens to be around almost always falls in love with it as well. I remember when my old band was on road trips together back in college, our bass player would request that we swing through Wichita at mealtime just so that he could have mom make this salad for us.


Again, everyone loves this salad.


And really, why wouldn’t they? The ingredients are pretty much a guaranteed slam-dunk. (And they’re also naturally gluten-free too!)


The classic family version calls for one head of red-leaf lettuce and one head of Romaine (or a few Romaine hearts)…


…artichoke hearts (one can, or two if you really want more), chopped roasted red peppers (or my mom used to use pimientos), toasted pine nuts (such a treat!), sliced red onions…


…and this heavenly Parmesan red wine vinaigrette.


Mom and Aunt Donna used to make this with that classic “Zesty Italian Dressing Mix” from Good Seasons, which we all used to love. But over the years, I’ve nixed the processed seasoning packet in favor of the copycat recipe I’ve included below, which includes 100% pronounceable ingredients and lots of fresh Parmesan. Mmmm.


Toss it all together…


…and give it a good mix… …and within minutes, this big bowl of happiness will be yours to share.


So from my family to yours, enjoy. ♥
