Salad Greens & Base

Protein (optional)

Method

Salad Greens & Base

1

Prepare greens

Wash and thoroughly dry the mixed salad greens and shredded iceberg. Tear larger leaves into bite-sized pieces. Place the mixed greens and shredded iceberg in a large salad bowl.

2

Add the halved cherry tomatoes, sliced cucumber, and very thinly sliced red onion to the bowl and toss gently to combine.

Cheeses & Toppings

3

Sprinkle the shredded cheddar, crumbled feta, and grated Parmesan evenly over the salad base.

4

Scatter the toasted walnuts or pecans on top and add the sliced pepperoncini or banana peppers if using.

5

If including protein, arrange the sliced grilled chicken breast over the top.

House Dressing

6

Make the dressing

In a medium bowl or jar, combine mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, apple cider vinegar, olive oil, Dijon mustard, honey, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Whisk (or shake in a jar) until smooth. If dressing is too thick, whisk in water 1 tablespoon at a time until desired consistency is reached.

7

Taste and adjust seasoning — add more salt, pepper, or a splash more vinegar or honey to balance acidity and sweetness as preferred.

8

If making ahead, refrigerate dressing in an airtight container for up to 5 days and bring to room temperature and re-whisk before using.

Assemble & Serve

9

Just before serving, drizzle 3–4 tablespoons of the house dressing over the salad (or serve dressing on the side). Toss gently to coat all ingredients evenly, or leave layered for a composed presentation.

10

Garnish with an extra sprinkle of grated Parmesan and a few whole toasted nuts for presentation. Serve immediately.
