While visiting family in Portland this summer, I was assigned (last minute) to bring a yummy salad. I looked in my dad’s fridge to see what he had available. I can’t usually count on him having much more than some bell peppers, pizza dough, pesto, and Parmesan cheese. But I lucked out this time! I…
