My friend Patsy
taught me how to make a green salad that everyone loves and will eat!
Layer these
suggestions on a large platter. Use what
you have on hand. Lots of variations!
1st
layer: Use baby greens or leaf lettuces
for a variety of color and textures
2nd
layer: Finely diced veggies like green onions, celery, green pepper, frozen petite
peas
3rd
layer: Fruits, such as sliced oranges, pear wedges, apple slices, and avocados
4th
layer: Dried fruits, craisins, dried cherries, dried apricots (I use scissors
to cut up)
5th
layer: Nuts, such as almonds slivers or
pine nuts. My favorite is cashews,
6th
layer: Salad dressing, drizzle over the
top
(Black olives,
cheese, and artichoke hearts can also be added)
