Wouldn't you know-last minute and no tropical fruit on hand (nary a can of pineapple!) Serve the salad with any light vinaigrette of your choice;- I drizzled on a small amount of red wine vinegar and grapeseed oil. CG Original. Ingredients:
1/2 head romaine lettuce or 1/2 head butter lettuce |
1 cup arugula leaf (rocket) |
1/4 red bell pepper, sliced thinly |
2 tablespoons fresh pineapple sage, en chiffonade plus |
2 -3 leaves whole pineapple sage, for garnish |
1/4 cup green peas |
1/2 small maroon carrot, shaved |
4 slices red onions, cut into crescents |
6 -8 slices cucumbers |
3 tablespoons glazed macadamia nuts |
2 lime wedges |
2 pineapple sage, flower blossoms (optional) |
Directions:
1. Combine everything except for the nuts and lime wedges on two salad plates.
2. Garnish with the macadamia nuts, lime wedges and a few whole pineapple sage leaves. (Optional: also, if available, garnish each serving with one pineapple sage flower blossom.).
3. Serve with a light vinaigrette. Do not add the dressing until just before serving.
