The simple toss of a few ingredients in a light olive oil dressing will cause your guests to rave!
The title of this post is a bit of an exaggeration, but not by much.
This salad is my go-to side for dinner parties, whether I’m playing the role of host or guest. The main entree could have been slow-roasted for 24 hours in special seasoning salt that was trailered in, yet the guests can be heard going on and on about the salad!
I’ve been making this recipe for so long that I don’t even remember where I learned it or who from. It’s really simple and ridiculously good.
If you don’t like one of the ingredients, simply leave it out and your salad will still be super-tasty.
Ingredients:
–Baby Romaine Lettuce
–Shaved or shredded parmesan cheese – 2 palmfuls
–Red onion – 1 palmful
–Walnut pieces (optional) – tip: give people the option to add their own by placing small bowls of walnut pieces around the table
—Newman’s Own Olive Oil Vinaigrette or make your own vinaigrette. All you need is enough to lightly coat the salad, but not saturate it.
–Toss all ingredients and serve immediately.
That’s all there is too it. Bon appétit!
