1
Prepare the Romaine Lettuce
Wash the romaine lettuce under cold running water. Remove any wilted or damaged outer leaves. Chop the lettuce into bite-sized pieces and place in a large salad bowl.
2
Slice the Cucumber
Wash the cucumber thoroughly. Cut off both ends and slice it in half lengthwise. Scoop out the seeds with a spoon if desired, then slice the cucumber into thin half-moon shapes. Add to the bowl with the lettuce.
3
Chop the Heirloom Tomatoes
Wash the heirloom tomatoes under cold water. Remove the stem and chop them into bite-sized pieces, discarding any tough cores. Add the chopped tomatoes to the salad bowl.
4
Slice the Red Onion
Peel the red onion and cut it in half. Thinly slice each half into half-moon shapes. Adjust the amount based on your taste preference. Add the sliced onion to the salad bowl.
5
Toss the Salad
Using salad tongs or your hands, gently toss all the ingredients together in the bowl to combine evenly.
