OUR FAVORITE SALAD
"We've served this salad over and over, and we never tire of it. This dressing tastes a lot like Caesar, but it's less trouble, and there's no blender to wash afterwards."
FOR THE SALAD:
1 clove garlic
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 head romaine
1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley
1/2 green pepper, diced
1/4 cucumber, quartered and sliced
1/4 sweet red onion
FOR THE DRESSING:
2 to 3 tablespoons lemon juice
2 to 3 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese
1 medium ripe tomato, cut into thin wedges
Crush the clove of garlic in a small bowl, cover it with the olive oil, and set it aside.
Wash and dry your romaine, break it up into a bowl, and add the parsley, pepper, cucumber, and onion.
Pour the garlic-flavored oil over the salad, and toss until every leaf is covered. Sprinkle on the lemon juice, and toss again. Then sprinkle on the Worcestershire sauce, and toss again. Finally, sprinkle on the Parmesan, and toss one last time.
Top with the tomatoes, and serve.
Makes 6 servings, each with 7 grams of carbohydrates and 3 grams of fiber, for a total of 4 grams of usable carbs and 4 grams of protein.
