I cannot tell a lie … this is the world’s easiest salad, but it’s also one you can serve to guests and get raving compliments. it’s my go-to salad, when I don’t have time for a ton of chopping but I want a side of greens. It looks stunning and tastes just as good.
Did I hype it enough for you? If you like mesclun greens and can throw them into a bowl, you can pretty much make this salad, and I’ll give you a bunch of variations so it can be a little bit different each time you serve it to the guests you don’t like enough to chop for!
Gourmet Mesclun Salad
Ingredients:
Toss all ingredients together in your desired proportions and serve. Say “thank you” when your guests tell you it’s yummy.
If you don’t want to use bottled balsamic vinaigrette (kind of a yuck in my house!), try my recipe:
Maple Mustard Balsamic Vinaigrette
Ingredients:
Whisk, taste, adjust olive oil to your liking, toss on salad and serve.
Some other variations?
