Method

Salad

  1. 1

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Wash and dry the mixed greens thoroughly. Halve the cherry tomatoes, and slice the cucumber and red onion thinly.

  2. 2

    Assemble the Salad

    In a large bowl, combine the mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, and red onion.

  3. 3

    Add Cheese and Dressing

    Sprinkle feta cheese over the salad. In a separate bowl, whisk together olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, and pepper. Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine.

Bruschetta

    Prepare the Baguette

    Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Slice the baguette into 1/2 inch thick slices and arrange them on a baking sheet.

  2. 5

    Toast the Bread

    Brush both sides of the baguette slices with olive oil. Bake in the preheated oven for about 5-7 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.

  3. 6

    Make the Tomato Mixture

    Dice the Roma tomatoes and finely chop the garlic and fresh basil. In a bowl, combine tomatoes, basil, garlic, olive oil, salt, and pepper.

    Spoon the tomato mixture generously onto each toasted baguette slice. Serve immediately.
