This is a recipe that I want to try from my new Cook'n program for my pc, which states that this is from Melanie Romeril, and she states: This pleasant dinner salad goes well with everything. Paired with crusty rolls, it makes a nice light summer supper. Ingredients:
2 cups romaine lettuce |
2 cups cherry tomatoes |
1 cup grated hard swiss cheese |
1 1/2 cups slivered toasted almonds |
1/3 cup grated parmesan cheese |
1 cup crouton |
1/2 cup chopped cooked bacon |
3 tablespoons lemon juice |
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil |
3 garlic cloves, minced |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
Directions:
1. Lightly toast almonds. Toss lettuce, tomatoes, Swiss cheese, almonds, Parmesan cheese, croutons, and bacon together and set aside. Prepare dressing by blending lemon juice, salt, oil, garlic, and pepper together at high speed in a blender or food processor. Pour over salad, toss, and serve immediately.
2. TIP: Bacon can quickly and easily be cooked in a microwave by laying pieces atop a paper towel on a microwave-safe plate. Cover with another paper towel and cook on high for 2 or 3 minutes, depending on how much bacon you are cooking. Cook until it reaches preferred doneness,.
3. checking frequently. Also you can toast your almonds in a 350 degree oven for about 5 minutes.
