Like salad? Like vinaigrettes? Then look no further! This recipe comes from my Uncle Don and it's absolutely delicious! Though be careful with this salad - the dressing doesn't stay good too long and it'll wilt the salad pretty quickly! So make sure you have lots of people to share this with!
What You'll Need
1-2 head of lettuce of your choosing (I used green leaf lettuce)
3 good sized tomatoes
2 cucumbers
1 green pepper
(For the vinaigrette - kind of got to eyeball this one)
When you get make this vinaigrette, you can make as much as you want. Just make sure the proportions with 2/3 balsamic vinegar and 1/3 olive oil
2 fresh garlic cloves (get a garlic press - it's imperative! Although it worked with the minced garlic for me!)
Sugar on top of that (sweeten according to taste – 7-10 tsp of sugar)
Diced black olives sprinkle that in
3 cubes of ice
Mix it Up!
This salad is real easy! Mix up your vinaigrette. Once you are done making it, put it in the fridge (it needs to be cold!!!) Wash and chop your vegetables and put in a bowl. Place it in the fridge (yer gonna want this cold!) Don't mix them until like five minutes before you're going to serve it, cause you don't want the salad to wilt!! When you do serve it, dump all the vinaigrette into the salad and mix it well so it coats all the leaves. Enjoy!
