Salad Ingredients

Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Wash all vegetables thoroughly. Chop the mixed salad greens into bite-sized pieces and place them in a large salad bowl.

  2. 2

    Add the Cherry Tomatoes

    Halve the cherry tomatoes and add them to the salad bowl with the greens.

  3. 3

    Slice the Cucumber

    Peel the cucumber if desired, then slice it into thin rounds or half-moons. Add to the bowl.

  4. 4

    Chop the Red Onion

    Peel and slice the red onion thinly. You can soak the slices in cold water for a few minutes to reduce the sharpness, if desired. Add to the salad.

  5. 5

    Shred the Carrots

    Peel and shred the carrot using a grater. Sprinkle the shredded carrots over the salad.

  6. 6

    Dice the Bell Pepper

    Remove the seeds and stem from the bell pepper, then dice it into small pieces. Add to the salad.

  7. 7

    Dress the Salad

    Drizzle olive oil over the salad. Season with salt and black pepper. Toss the salad gently to combine all ingredients. Add your choice of dressing to taste.

  8. 8

    Serve

    Serve the tossed green salad immediately as a fresh side dish. Enjoy!
