This salad has a wonderful, refreshing flavor for those hot summer days.
Ingredients
- 1 head romaine lettuce shopping list
- Two medium sized tomatoes shopping list
- 5 small salad (kirby pickle) cucumbers. If not available, use 1 or 2 English Hot House (seedless) cucumbers shopping list
- ½ small red onion, thinly sliced shopping list
- 1-2 cloves garlic shopping list
- ¾ teaspoon coarse sea salt shopping list
- ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil shopping list
- 1½ tablespoon lemon juice shopping list
- crisy pita chip pieces shopping list
How to make it
- Smash the garlic with salt in a mortar and pestle or in the bottom of a bowl using a spoon. Add olive oil and lemon juice and mix well with a whisk to allow the garlic flavor to permeate the liquid. Cut the lettuce, tomatoes, and cucumbers into bite-size pieces and mix thoroughly with the liquid dressing. Top with crispy pieces of pita bread and a few slices of red onion. Eat immediately.
- Note: Chill the lettuce, tomatoes, onion and cucumbers beforehand so salad is served chilled. Also, add a pinch of dried mint or parsley to the dressing for a different flavor. You also can add some curmbled feta cheese to this salad.
