Chef-style Meets Chopped Salad

Two salads in one.

A dressed chopped salad is topped chef salad style with larger sized pieces of more vegetables, and boiled eggs.


The Chopped Salad:

All ingredients chop into small bite sized pieces. This is all about what is on hand in the fridge. The following is what I made our dinner-sized salads with.
  • iceberg lettuce
  • cucumber, peeled and seeded
  • spring onion
  • broccoli stems (reserve florettes for next part of salad)
Dress salad with dressing of your choice and seasoning with salt and pepper. I also added crunchy salad topping (the one with the sunflowers and baco bits. Also chopped nuts would be good here)

Chef-style Salad Topping:
  • roma tomato, cut into wedges
  • had boiled, cut into wedges
  • cucumber, peeled seeded and cut into spears
  • broccoli florettes, separated into bite size
Arrange on top of chopped salad, grab a fork and crunch away!

Sometimes a mega salad just sounds good. Last night was one of those nights. This salad was surprisingly filling, making us glad we didn't accompany the meal with any bread. It sure hit the spot!

Taste Tester Results: "Honey this is good!" He seemed in disbelief that he was saying that about a mere salad, but hey... I'll take it!!
