Hearts of Palm Balsamic Salad

Valentina

This meal-in-one salad is my personal adaptation of the popular Urth Salad available at Urth Caffé of California. The flavor is distinctly Mediterranean from the combination of olives, tomatoes, feta, and balsamic vinaigrette. But the best part may be the hearts of palm, which add a nice hearty texture. Ready in 15 minutes.
