    Cup of Yum
  1. Choose a wide shallow salad bowl and lay down a base of lettuce leaves and shredded raddichio.
  2. Put the salad dressing ingredients in a mason jar, put on the lid, and shake until it emulsifies. (That means it becomes cloudy and doesn't separate) Taste it and add adjust to your liking.
  3. In a mixing bowl add the rest of the salad ingredients, and toss with enough dressing to moisten. Season with salt and pepper if you like.
  4. Spoon the bean salad on top of the lettuces, and serve.
