With all of the wonderful warm weather produce available right now, I find it hard to not include a salad in our dinner menus. This recipe is no exception—especially with its stunning purple-on-purple color presentation, and the tasty combination of crispy bacon, briny olives and sherry vinegar-mustard vinaigrette.  I had a bunch of Castelvetrano olives on hand, so I swapped those in for the black olives suggested.  The sweetness of the ripe plums paired with the crunch and bitter taste of the radicchio is a delight– such a perfect salad to ease into the endless bounty of fresh summertime ingredients.
