Stacky5's Note:

Serve Italian bread or hard rolls with this main dish salad. This is also a perfect salad to serve using leftover roast turkey, chicken, pork or beef...any of which will work nicely. Recipe courtesy of CooksRecipes.

This was good, but the marinated artichoke hearts made it really rich. Next time, I might try using only one jar of artichoke hearts and replacing the marinade that would have come from that jar with some olive oil. The dressing was a little thin and pooled at the bottom. It would be a great salad for summer.
