The idea for this salad was formed when I needed a salad but didn’t have any lettuce! I mixed various crunchy items and topped them with a dressing. It was very tasty, and we loved the crunchiness!
Crunchy Lettuce-less Salad
Chop:
1/2 red pepper
1 cucumber
1 carrot
1 apple (I used Empire)
~1/4 cup almonds (or another nut)
Toss all together.
Top with dressing of your choice. I used Italian. I think a vinaigrette, like Raspberry or Balsamic, would work well, too. Maybe a poppy seed dressing?? The sky is the limit!
Eat with fervor, enjoying the crunch!
This is trully a good idea.. really i am always wanted veggies with ranch but always out of lettus! this will be great, I just started making homemade ranch... mmmmm! love that crunch! ;)
