Sometimes it's easier to cheat with a bagged lettuce mix. Top this salad with my Homemade Croutons and Creamy Caesar Dressing.
Ingredients:
5 cups mixed salad greens (with iceberg, romaine and radicchio lettuce)
2 large mushrooms
2 hard-boiled eggs, chopped
1/2 ounce prosciutto, chipped
1/2 small courgette, sliced
1/2 small red onion, peeled and sliced into thin rings
1/4 small green pepper, cored
1/4 small red pepper, cored
2 cups salad dressing
1 cup crouton
1/2 cup cherry tomatoes
1/2 cup bacon, crisped and crumbled
1/2 cup broccoli floret
1/2 cup cauliflower floret
1/2 cup mozzarella cheese, finely shredded
2 tablespoons parmesan cheese, coarsely grated
2 tablespoons romano cheese, coarsely grated
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
Directions:
1. Put the lettuce mix in a large bowl.
2. Add mushrooms, proscuitto, bacon bits, peppers, broccoli, cauliflower, salt, pepper, and garlic powder to food processor and mix until veggies are chopped.
3. Add processed veggies, eggs, cheese and salad dressing to bowl of lettuce.
4. Toss salad in a wave-like motion until the veggies are well-mixed and coated with dressing.
5. Split salad into separate serving bowls.
6. Top each salad with a few croutons, cherry tomatoes, courgette slices, and onion rings.
