I have to admit I love the “kit” salads they sell in Publix and Walmart. I mean how easy is that, you buy a ready-made salad, use your knife to open the bag (or scissors), dump it on a plate and you’re done!
But holy S**T that is boring.
Why get the dump when you can create your own amazing salad instead. Like what I did here.
It should only take about 15-20 minutes to create your dream salad. My ingredients include:
- Arugula Lettuce
- One (or ½) onion
- Cucumber
- Tomato
- Parsley
- Feta Cheese (crumbles)
- Olives
- Fruit (for added flavor) in my case a peach.
And here are the instructions, in case you need them.
Chop everything basically as thin as you can, while leaving the lettuce (no pun intended) a little larger. Then mix, toss and shake in a large bowl and serve.
There is no reason why you have to settle for a pre-made salad when you can easily make your own.
Note: on the top photo I added tuna for protein.
