Here's my salad just before I tossed on the mozzarella and dressing. Isn't it colorful? Chopped salads are a convenient way to add lots of colorful vegetables to your meals. You don't even need to use a knife to eat them. In fact, a spoon might be the best way to down this bowlful of veggies.

Sicilian Spaghetti with Tuna is an age-old Italian recipe that has traditionally contained anchovies with fresh tomatoes and Kalamata olives.
