I love Mozza’s cookbook, though there are a lot of steps in each recipe (sor of like Sunday Suppers at Lucques).
I have made this chopped salad many times, always a hit!
Typo alert! Your first sentence spells Nancy’s last name Silverson (but it’s correct in the last paragraph). Love her books, haven’t tried this salad yet but have baked my way through her Breads From LaBrea Bakery book.
I love this salad! Next time I will try Nancy’s recipe for cooking dried chickpeas. The only thing I changed was to use less olive oil in the dressing. I like the dressing to be very tangy! Oh, and more peperoncini. Mahalo Tim!
Ooo. This cookbook keeps popping up on my Amazon suggested purchases list, and if this is the kind of food that’s included, it should definitely go on my wish list.
I’m also really bummed about Roger’s passing, but I’m also in awe at the sheer volume of work he has churned out, especially in the last few years. I’m going to miss his New Yorker cartoon caption submissions (he’d always tweet his entry) in addition to his always-fascinating insights into film, even if I didn’t agree with what he had to say.
Hey! Thanks for the shout-out! Yours looks amaaaazing.
Alsoooo, spent a lot of time with Wheaton people this weekend. I kept asking them: “What’s up with the expensive, exclusive restaurants?!” (No I didn’t. But I thought about it!)
YUM! This looks so good. Love the oregano vinaigrette. I’ve made a few of Nancy’s recipes and you are correct, she is very particular. But everything always comes out well, so I’m not complaining!
I agree with you about Roger Ebert; we lost an icon, as well as Annette Funicello, it has been a sad week. On another note, thank you for the chopped salad recipe. I love chopped salads. I even have chopped salad scissors that make it easy to make one. I will definitely try this one!

Love the cookbook and have made the salad and agree, delish! I too mourn the passing of Roger, a very special human!

Tim, if I may suggest, you should make a dish as a tribute to Mr. Ebert. Also you should make macaroons. Just throwing those ideas out there.

This looks great. Also, “It is almost impossible to play a dumb person who is supposed to be smart” = ha ha! He was so insightful.

You make a salad actually look like eating, something that is rare for me. Might try this, thanks for sharing. Tom

I doubled the chickpea recipe and used the extra for hummus. Definitely worth the effort.

Great for dinner, especially as the weather starts to heat up.
