This spring salad is really a WINNER. So simple and quick to prepare with easy to obtain ingredients and so delicious. I use salsa verde for the salad as I have some ready in the fridge, but a herb vinaigrette, or honey and mustard dressing would be great as well.

- Put olive oil, the herbs, capers, garlic, mustard, anchovies, lemon zest, and the lemon juice in a food processor. Blend until well mixed. Season with salt and pepper. Chill until ready for use.
- Place the eggs in a small pan, cover with cold water and bring to the boil. Simmer uncovered for 5-8 minutes, depending on the desired doneness. Drain, rinse in cold water until cold enough to handle.
- Heat the olive oil in a skillet. Add in diced bread and toast until they are lightly browned and crunchy.
- Divide the baby greens and cherry radish wedges into two serving plates. Peel eggs. Coat each with chopped parsley and slice into half. Arrange them on the serving plates. Spoon some prepared salsa verde over and scatter the croutons over. Drizzle with a bit of balsamic cream if desired.

I love adding croutons in salads. Looks refreshing and delicious!
What a beautiful and inviting salad! Great for upcoming spring and summer meals! Anchovies, radishes, eggs, croutons....perfect! : )
Mm love the flavorful salsa verde. This looks like a wonderful salad, Angie!
Wonderful and so summery! Perfect with salasa verde.

Although a simple salad dressing is what I usually pour on my salad, I confess to a sinfully prepared mustard and honey dressing...I need to hold back...I consider it a treat ;o)
Now, a salsa verde has brought up my antenna on something that I've never tried on salad...it only makes sense...and I'm sure it must be delizioso.
Have a great week ahead Angie.
Flavourful wishes,
Claudia

What a fabulous spring salad! And such a perfect photo! I need to pick up some greens at the market...you've inspired me :)
Salsa verde combined with eggs sounds addictive! I would never have thought to combine the two!
Great looking salad! Salsa verde is such a nice change from dressing, I love it! Will have to try this one very soon!
I love salads with eggs, look amazing Angie, gloria
Delightful looking salad and your salsa verde sounds like a delicious dressing. I need to be making more dinner salads after the indulgences of the holiday and birthday celebrations recently! This one sounds like a perfect way to start.
I've never had egg salad before but it looks and sounds delicious! I'll have to give it a try one day :)
Such a beautiful salad! I love the different flavors and textures going on in it.
Salsa verde with eggs...what a good idea! Sounds delicious!

Refreshing and tummy-filling salad...
A healthy winner : ).
Beautiful and healthy salad as usual. Always looks so perfect :)
Simple and delicious! Great for Summer!
The salsa verde is inspired and may be my new salad dressing for the summer when my herbs are in. If summer comes... we are still waiting on spring. With the eggs for some protein this would be the grandest lunch.
Croutons add the perfect touch to a salad...that lovely crunch! This looks marvelous, Angie. Your salsa verde recipe is wonderful.
Angie-I love salsa verde...never incorporated it with hard boiled eggs in a salad, with whole wheat croutons. So genius!!!!
Love your version of the salsa verde! I usually use it for enchiladas, but for a salad?...great idea, as well!
Thanks for the "tip"...and you caring, as well!

That is my kind of salad, look so yummy and satisfying! I am normally not a crouton girl, but if they are wholewheat I think I could splurge on that :-)
adore the salsa ingredients, yum. I am scared of my food processor (long story) may need to try this in vitamix.
Angie, the salsa verde would definitely be perfect for this! I'll give your recipe a try and also try it with some of my salads. Lately, I've been eating too much salads and I'm sure would be a wonderful way to give my salads a new spin! Yum, that's for sure!
By the way, the presentation with the radish wedges on the side is fantastic! I love that idea! Fabulous, Angie!
