Today I picked up a Nicoise Salad from my favorite lunch place down the street. I love the clean, crisp flavors of this salad, particularly how the simple flavors of the tomatoes, lettuce, and green beens balance the saltiness of the olives, artichokes, and tuna. Although my salad doesn't have fennel or bell pepper like this recipe, that's the beauty of salad -- you can really add or delete ingredients to suit your preferences.
