My cookbook is here! 
The copycat La Scala chopped salad is so simple, you can throw together on those lazy days when you don’t feel like cooking.
This is a viral recipe I found on TikTok that looked absolutely delicious and simple to make. My two weaknesses in life. The videos I found online referenced the Kardashians and therefore I mentioned them in my video too. I’m definitely happy I tried this dish and would recommend it to anyone.
If you like this salad, you will love my Italian Chopped Salad or my 1905 Columbia’s Salad. Both of these dishes eliminate cooking and all you have to do is whisk and chop to prepare.
One of the my favorite parts of this salad is that you marinate the chickpeas in the dressing and then use them to create a salad mold mountain of sorts. Looks beautiful for presentation and its something different to try!

I USED TO EAT THIS
‘authentic” SALAD AT LA SCALA IN BEVERLY HILLS. THE CHEF WAS MY FRIEND. THEY CHOPPED IT IN FRONT OF YOU BY ORDER. They add cherry tomatoes, too, it’s so good, with PROVOLONE cheese
Delightful scala chopped salad recipe Thanks
So delicious! Will be on repeat!
Another fantastic recipe from Stella. Just made it today and it’s fresh and delicious. Your recipes are so good that even if one ingredient is omitted, they still taste good. I didn’t add sundried tomatoes.
