Salad Base

Method

Prepare Salad Base

  1. 1

    Wash and Prepare Lettuce

    Remove the outer leaves of the iceberg lettuce, wash the remaining head under cold running water, and pat dry with a clean towel. Cut the lettuce into quarters and then chop into bite-sized pieces.

  2. 2

    Add Shredded Carrots

    Take the shredded carrots and add them to the bowl with the chopped iceberg lettuce.

  3. 3

    Prepare Tomato

    Wash the tomato and cut it into wedges. Add the wedges to the salad bowl with the lettuce and carrots.

Make Dressings

  1. 4

    Homemade Italian Dressing

    In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, red wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

  2. 5

    Serve with Store-bought Dressings

    Alternatively, you can serve the salad with ranch, French, or blue cheese dressings from a bottle.
