Here is what I put in my salad. There are a few main staples. The rest you can change to make your own. To me, the salad is not complete without all of these in it though.
*Organic Mixed Greens
*Shredded Carrot (I used the pre packaged)
*Shredded Red Cabbage (I use the pre packaged)
*Cucumber, deseeded and diced
*Yellow Banana Pepper, deseeded and diced
*Tomato, diced
*Green Apple, diced
*Sweet Onion, sliced thin
*Avocado, Diced
*Crumbled Feta Cheese (Any flavor)
*Golden Raisens
*Slivered Almonds
*Alessi Brand White Balsamic Vinegar (Must be this brand)
*Extra Light Tasting Olive Oil (Light EVOO)
*Nature Seasonings
*Ground Pepper
Sometimes (as in this picture) I add other things such as green or red peppers, or other fruit. Depends on if I have things in my fridge I need to get rid of. I love vinegar so I do about equal parts vinegar to oil. I have a friend who uses a bit more oil then vinegar and she thinks it tastes best that way. Always add less of both, toss, and taste. You can always add more! Season as much or as little as you'd like.
This is what I use for the dressing. 1:1 vinegar/oil. Season well. |
It can get a little pricy with so many ingredients. I usually buy everything and will make the salad every day for a week:) Or as I said, it's GREAT to bring to a party... just bring the dressing, cheese, tomato and apple on the side and prepare right before eating. ENJOY!
Use this vinegar with extra light virgin olive oil and some Nature Seasonings... you will never want to use another salad dressing again! SO good!
