Basic green salad with a sweet mayonnaise dressing. Guessing on the measurements as I just add what I think will work. I use a shallow Teak wooden salad bowl that is only about 2 inches high so all the small ingredients don't fall to the bottom and get lost like they would in a deep bowl. Using a shallow dish, you can make a real pretty display. If you're not a radish fan, you'll be surprised how good they are with this dressing. Ingredients:
1 cup romaine lettuce, torn into bite size pieces and chilled |
1 cup green leaf lettuce, torn into bite size pieces and chilled |
1/4 cup blue cheese or 1/4 cup feta cheese, crumbles |
1/4 cup bacon piece (make sure bacon is cooked crispy) |
1/4 cup candied pecan pieces (candied almonds would be good also) |
1/4 cup radish, cut up into small pieces |
1 apple, cut into slices to lay in a circle after you have mixed the other ingredients |
1/4 cup mayonnaise |
1 -2 tablespoon sugar (more or less to your liking) |
1 -2 tablespoon milk (more or less for desired consistency) |
Directions:
1. Mix the romaine lettuce, green leaf lettuce, cheese, cooked bacon pieces, candied pecans, and radishes, together in a salad bowl.
2. Lay the apple slices in a circle on top.
3. For the dressing, mix the mayonnaise, sugar, and milk together and chill to blend. I don't put the dressing on the salad. Serve it on the side so you can add however much you want.
