Servings
4
servingsMy take on a simple but elegant salad that I met on a trip to Ottawa. Good for lunch or brunch in any season.
Ingredients
1 cup rocket (arugula)
1 cup romaine
1 cup tart apple, cut into matchsticks
½ cup tomatoes
⅓ cup crisp bacon, chopped
¼ cup sharp cheddar, crumbled
snipped herb of your choice (I usually use tarragon)
Directions
- Remove pulp from tomatoes, dice fine, and marinate in wine vinegar for 20-30 minutes. Combine greens, very lightly tossed with lemon juice and oil or a very light vinaigrette. Toss with other ingredients, sprinkle on snipped herb, and serve.
