CLASSIC BALSAMIC VINAGRETTE SALAD
This is THE all-time most often served salad in restaurants across the world...more so than even the Caesar. It is VERY simple. The classic recipe is made with just greens and dressing, although I have listed some of my favorite additions as well.
Ingredients
1 pound mixed greens, cleaned and spun dry
balsamic vinegar
olive oil
salt & pepper
To Make...
1. In a large bowl, place the greens.
2. Over the top, sprinkle 3 parts olive oil for one part balsamic. How much you use depends on how wet you like your salad. For extra "zing," close the formula to 2 ½ parts oil to 1 vinegar.
3. Freshly grind pepper over the top, and sprinkle a teaspoon of salt, then mix the salad and serve.
GREAT ADDITIONS:
Roasted pine nuts
Chopped tomatoes
Feta cheese
Red onion
