The Best Salad EVER!

Before I share the Best Salad Recipe ever with you, I want to start by pointing out to you that while I will eat a salad (unlike someone else I know), I do not CRAVE salads.  

One should note that I only eat salads when:
I want to set a good example for the picky little eaters.

It is served to me.

It is dripping in blue cheese dressing and I'm about to follow it up with a giant steak.

That said, I CRAVE this salad and you will too.  Trust me.  Otherwise, I think you need to have your taste buds examined.


Ingredients:


4 cups iceberg lettuce
1 tomato cut in 1/8
1/2 cup baked ham, julienned
1/2 cup swiss cheese
1/2 cup pimiento stuffed green Spanish olives (I sometimes omit)
2 cups  dressing recipe
1/2 cup Romano cheese
2 Tablespoons Lee & Perrins
1 lemon (juiced)


Dressing:
1/2 cup Spanish olive oil (yes, it makes a difference)
4 garlic cloves minced
2 teaspoons oregano
1/8 cup white vinegar


Prepare dressing 1-2 days in advance and refrigerate for best results.


If you make this dressing, take a picture of it and share it with me. I am too busy devouring this salad to take the time to photograph it.

Last night I had a major salad craving... crisp lettuce with thinly sliced ribeye steak (chilled, cooked medium).... yum. Your salad sounds yummy too, although I am not a fan of swiss cheese or olives.
