Bring the freshness of your vegetable garden inside for a green salad loaded with color and crunch; then top it off with cooked, crumbled Italian sausage for a complete meal.
Ingredients:
1 pound bob evansĀ® italian sausage roll
1 large head romaine or green leaf lettuce
1 large fresh ripe tomato, cut into wedges
1 medium cucumber, sliced
1 medium zucchini, sliced or shredded
1 large fresh carrot, peeled and shredded
1/2 medium red onion, sliced
black olives or croutons (optional)
olive oil to taste
red wine or balsamic vinegar to taste
black pepper to taste
1/2 cup parmesan cheese, shredded (or more to taste)
Directions:
1. Clean and wash all vegetables, break up lettuce into large bite size pieces and drain well. On a large serving platter, arrange green lettuce in center, place tomatoes, cucumbers, zucchini, and carrots to the surrounding edges. Reserve chilled to side.
2. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, brown and crumble Italian sausage. Cook until no longer visibly pink and drain.
3. Arrange hot cooked sausage over chilled lettuce and garnish with red sliced onions, olives and croutons if desired. Sprinkle with olive oil, vinegar, pepper and with grated cheese. Serve guests immediately. Refrigerate leftovers.
