PLANT-FORWARD RECIPES FOR THE INSPIRED HOME COOK

Artichoke and Hearts of Palm Salad with Pancetta

Light, simple and full of flavor, this Artichoke and Hearts of Palm Salad with Pancetta is one of my favorite salads. It’s perfect for when you’re craving a side salad with soup or you can add chicken or salmon and make it a meal. I serve it with my Creamy Herb-Dijon Vinaigrette but the flavors in this salad work well with a Balsamic or Italian dressing as well.
