1
Prepare the Vegetables
Wash and dry the lettuce thoroughly. Tear it into bite-sized pieces and place it in a large salad bowl.
2
Chop the Tomatoes
Dice the tomatoes into small cubes and add them to the bowl with the lettuce.
3
Slice the Cucumber
Peel the cucumber if desired, then slice it into thin rounds. Add the cucumber slices to the salad bowl.
4
Chop the Onion
Finely chop the onion and add it to the bowl. If you prefer a milder onion flavor, rinse the chopped onion under cold water.
5
Dice the Bell Pepper
Remove the seeds and stem from the bell pepper. Dice it into small pieces and add it to the salad.
6
Make the Dressing
In a small bowl or jar, combine the olive oil, red wine vinegar, salt, and black pepper. Whisk or shake until well combined.
7
Toss the Salad
Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss gently until all ingredients are evenly coated.
8
Serve
Serve the salad immediately as a side dish or refrigerate for a short while before serving.
