Two Salads: One Old, One New


Its finally summer and salad season is upon us.  We've been eating a ton of them around here.  Although I like almost any salad, my favorites are the ones with a ton of different ingredients.  The lettuce is just there as building block for whatever else you happen to have on hand. 

The salad above on the left is one my family has been making the forever.  I dreamed about it when I was away at school eating dorm food.  It starts with chopped romaine and any other ingredients I find in my fridge that I can chop and throw in.  In this case it happened to be scallions, red pepper, tomato, celery and cheddar cheese.
