3 Ways To Make A Garden Salad

You can also use whole cherry or grape tomatoes. You can use them whole or cut them in half.

You can also use canola, grape seed oil, or vegetable oil instead of olive oil. These will give you a more delicate flavor. Instead of white wine vinegar, you can also use apple cider vinegar, balsamic vinegar, red wine vinegar, or rice vinegar.

For a fresh, herbal touch, add 1–2 tablespoons (14. 8–29. 6 ml) of chopped, fresh herbs, such as basil, cilantro, parsley, mint, or thyme. For a sharper flavor, add 1 finely-mined garlic clove. You can also use a garlic press instead. For a cheesier option, add 2 tablespoons (29. 6 ml) of finely grated or crumbled cheese, such as parmesan. Add some spice with a pinch of crushed red pepper flakes or 1 teaspoon of dijon mustard. Add a little sweetness with ½ to 1 teaspoon of 1/2 – 1 honey or sugar.

You can make the salad with lettuce, or omit it completely.
