Mix Salad Recipe

Prepare the Vegetables

Start by washing all the vegetables under cold running water to remove any dirt or pesticides.

Chop the Romaine Lettuce

Take the Romaine lettuce, remove the tough stems, and chop it into bite-sized pieces. Place it in a large salad bowl.

Halve the Cherry Tomatoes

Cut the cherry tomatoes in half and add them to the bowl with the lettuce.

Slice the Cucumber

Peel the cucumber if desired, then slice it into thin rounds or half-moons. Add to the salad bowl.

Slice the Red Onion

Peel the red onion and slice it thinly. You can soak the slices in cold water for a few minutes to reduce their pungency if desired. Add to the bowl.

Grate the Carrot

Use a grater to shred the carrot into fine pieces and add it to the salad.

Chop the Bell Pepper

Remove the seeds and core from the bell pepper, then chop it into small pieces. Add to the salad bowl.

Add Feta Cheese

Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese over the salad.

Make the Dressing

In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

Dress the Salad

Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine all the ingredients evenly.

Serve

Serve the salad immediately as a side dish or a light meal.
