Salmagundi was the chef's salad of 18th century England. In present day England and in Colonial Williamsburg, the name has been revived. My mother enjoyed serving this as a main course for dinner. We always liked it!

SALMAGUNDI BAKE

Salmagundi Bake image

I have no idea what the word "Salmagundi" is or means. My mom made this from a Better Homes and Garden cookbook. I make it now with brown rice and a little more spice and it's on the family comfort food list. Easy to put together and if I'm really lazy...I skip chopping the onions and green pepper and use frozen ones!

Chop your ingredients evenly: This will help them cook evenly and make your salmagundi more visually appealing.
Don't overcook your vegetables: They should be tender but still have a bit of a crunch.
Use a light touch with the dressing: You don't want to overpower the flavors of the other ingredients.
Serve your salmagundi immediately: This dish is best enjoyed fresh.
