Salad Base

Dressing (optional)

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Wash and Prepare Vegetables

    Thoroughly wash the mixed greens under cold water and pat dry with a clean kitchen towel or use a salad spinner. Cut the cherry tomatoes in half. Peel the cucumber and slice it into thin rounds. Peel the Bermuda onion and slice it thinly. Peel the carrot and shred it using a grater.

  2. 2

    Combine Salad Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the mixed greens, halved cherry tomatoes, sliced cucumber, thinly sliced Bermuda onion, and shredded carrot. Toss gently to mix the ingredients evenly.

  3. 3

    Add Croutons

    Sprinkle the croutons over the top of the salad mixture. Do not toss yet to maintain the crunchiness of the croutons.

Dressing (optional)

  1. 4

    Prepare Dressing

    In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, and pepper until well combined. Adjust seasoning to taste.

  2. 5

    Dress the Salad

    Drizzle the dressing over the salad just before serving. Toss gently to coat the salad ingredients evenly with the dressing.
