You might find Niçoise salad on the menu at a fancy French bistro. But did you know you can easily make the same dish at home for a fraction of the cost?

This 10-minute dinner is plenty filling, absolutely delicious, and even pretty affordable! How's that for a winner? If you don't love anchovies, you can skip them, but if you're unsure, give 'em a try at least once. They pack a ton of flavor and balance out the dish well.
