This vibrant Olivier Salad is my go to when I need something fresh and satisfying without spending hours in the kitchen. With just 25 minutes total, you'll have a gorgeous bowl of crisp greens, burst of cherry tomatoes, and tangy capers all tossed together with a bright vinaigrette. The cherry tomatoes are packed with lycopene, a powerful antioxidant that's wonderful for your heart. What I love most is how affordable this dish is, especially since you probably have most of these ingredients already in your pantry. It's the perfect weeknight dinner that feels fancy but couldn't be simpler to throw together.
