Base Salads

Method

Base Salad Preparation

1

Prepare the Base Salads

Wash and dry all base salad ingredients thoroughly. Tear the romaine lettuce, spinach, and mixed greens into bite-sized pieces. Chop the cucumber into half-moons, halve the cherry tomatoes, and thinly slice the red onion.

Toppings Preparation

2

Prepare the Toppings

Prepare the toppings by chopping the avocado into slices, and if using whole chickpeas, rinse and drain them. Slice the bell peppers into strips and set aside all toppings in separate bowls.

Dressing Preparation

3

Make the Dressing

In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, salt, and pepper until emulsified. Adjust seasoning to taste.

Assembly

4

Assemble the Salad Bar

In a large serving bowl or platter, arrange the base salads first. Then, provide an assortment of toppings in bowls around the base salads. Drizzle the dressing over the salad or serve it on the side for guests to add as desired.
