One of the nicest Cuban restaurants in Florida shared their popular salad with Food and I wanted to share it with Zaar. It is our favorite salad when we go to the Columbia.
Ingredients:
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon oregano
1 teaspoon worcestershire sauce
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/8 cup white wine vinegar
2 teaspoons lemon juice
salt and pepper
1/2 head shredded iceberg lettuce
2 ripe tomatoes, cut in eights
2 stalks celery, sliced
1/2 cup julienne strips swiss cheese
1/2 cup julienne strips ham or 1/2 cup turkey or 1/2 cup shrimp
1/4 cup green spanish olives, pitted
2 teaspoons grated romano cheese
Directions:
1. In a bowl or jar mix first seven ingredients and mix well.
2. Use a whisk, or shake in the jar with a tight lid.
3. Set dressing aside.
4. Mix the next six ingredients in a large salad bowl.
5. Pour dressing over the salad mix and toss gently.
6. Sprinkle with the Romano cheese and toss until well blended.
7. You may use pepperoni sausage, what ever hard sliced cheese you like as the meat and cheese in the salad.
8. Serve as soon as you have mixed the dressing and cheese into the salad.
9. This is great with crusty Cuban bread and butter.
