Mix Salad

(Original recipe makes 2-3 servings)

Ingredients:

7- 8 romaine lettuce leaves- rinsed, dried, and chopped
2 tomatoes, chopped
One cucumber, sliced into thick moons
½ green pepper (bell pepper), chopped
Some feta cheese, cut into small cubes
7-8 black olives
2-3 walnuts- chopped into small pieces
1/4 cup dried cranberries
Half lemon, juiced
Sea salt to taste
Two tablespoons olive oil

Directions:

Whisk the olive oil, lemon juice, and salt, together in a small bowl.
Combine all the ingredients together in a large salad bowl.
Pour mix dressing over salad, toss and serve.

My Notes:

• If you like your salad dressing to have a sourer taste, juice one lemon.

• You can also use 7-8 cherry tomatoes instead of one large tomato.

• For the salad dressing, you can purchase your favorite salad dressing and use it in this salad.
