Last Second Salad Recipe

Manic:  Company is coming for dinner and you already have a lot to prepare, so you need a simple last second salad.

Managed:  Cheat!  Try this salad idea.  I’m almost embarrassed to post it because it is so easy.  However, I’ve had gal pals I’ve shared this trick with tell me that they think it is a good idea, so here it is.

Last Second Salad Recipe

Stuff You Need:

1 head of romaine lettuce

1/4 lb. of your grocer’s Greek salad fresh from the deli

Feta cheese to sprinkle on top – your desired amount (I forgot to do this in my pictured salad!)

What You Do:

1.  With all of the other courses you have to prepare when making dinner for guests, simply combining the deli Greek salad with the lettuce gives you an instant last second salad.  Plus the deli Greek salad has enough dressing already on it, so no additional dressing is needed, but taste it and then decide for yourself if you need to add extra dressing.

And remember to use romaine lettuce for good health.  Did you know that romaine has 6 times more Vitamin C and 8 times more beta-carotene than iceberg lettuce?   Good to know and healthy to eat.
