The other night I had the privilege of eating this amazing gluten free salad at Frasca, a fabulous restaurant in downtown Boulder. Their salad however, had salami, while mine, for a little hit of protein, contains walnuts.

I served this salad with dinner Sunday night while my 3 boys (2 children and husband) watched the NFL playoffs.  Dinner (and this salad) were a hit (even though the Jets lost).

Radicchio Salad with Frisée and Apples
1 head radicchio, thinly sliced
½ head frisee, sliced

1. In a large salad bowl, combine radicchio frisee and apple
2. Drizzle salad with olive oil and vinegar and toss

Valentine’s Day is coming up and I will be teaching a Valentine’s Day gluten free, dairy free cooking class at Bauman College on Wednesday, February 10th in Boulder –hope to see you there!
