This salad has such attractive ingredients, I prefer to arrange the ingredients on top of the lettuce placed on a platter so that all the items show nicely. Instead of mixing the dressing in, I would drizzle it on top. Tuna is, of course, traditional, but I am thinking I would prefer chicken.

I had to make a french salad for a party we were having at work and after researching, this was the best recipe. The only thing is I didn't add the olives and artichokes. I got a lot of compliments on this recipe.
