Company Salad
This recipe is so ultra simple and quick that it is usually what I serve when I have guests and have to be occupied with other dishes for the meal.
The lettuce can be prepared early in the day and refrigerated until needed.
What you need
- 2 heads butter lettuce, washed and torn
- 1 apple, pear, mango or 1 small basket berries
- Handful broken pecan pieces (Optional)
- 1 cup olive oil
- 1/3 cup apple cider, champagne or white wine vinegar
- 1 small garlic clove mashed
- 1 tsp honey, brown sugar or other sweetener
- salt and pepper to taste
How to make it
- Prepare the lettuce and cover or refrigerate until needed
- Combine vinegar, garlic, honey, salt and pepper until well blended or sugar is dissolved
- Slowly whisk in olive oil
- Place dressing into a jar
- Wash, dry (peel if necessary or desired) and dice the fruit
- Add fruit and nut pieces to the lettuce
- Shake dressing to blend and dress the salad lightly
Diced celery can be added as well and you can use a bottled dressing to make this even faster.
