ITALIAN SALAD MIX



Italian Salad Mix image

This is a great salad served in Italian and French restaurants in South Louisiana. It was known by another name, but most restaurants changed the name because it might offend. Some Italian restaurants refuse to do so and say that since they are Italian and are not offended, they will do what they want. This is my husband's favorite salad.
