Many of you are probably familiar with the bar, Trick Dog, in San Francisco.

There’s nothing like experiencing your very first music festival. I’ll never forget mine, despite it being what feels like decades ago.

To me, salads aren’t just measly side dishes made from sad boring vegetables. I like to make them substantial meals featuring seasonal veggies and fruits that are looking perfectly ripe at the market.

Make sure to source the best, most ripe fruit and quality prosciutto, extra virgin olive oil and flake sea salt. This salad is otherwise easy to make and serve. I like to keep the fruit in big pieces to make this almost a fork-and-knife salad, but you could slice and dice this any way!
