Salade Niçoise
Salade Niçoise began its life as a household catch-all salad based on what was available from the garden and sitting in the pantry. The best news? It’s virtually impossible to mess up, and rules are meant to be broken. Add whatever you’d like to it—it will be tasty.

The name croque monsieur translates to “mister crunch” and this delicious French ham and cheese sandwich, made with gruyere, parmesan, ham and a simple béchamel sauce is toasted in the oven til perfectly crunchy.
