Sometimes it is just nice to have a big, fresh salad that you can put together in no time at all. On these hot summer days when you want a dinner that does not need to be cooked, a chef salad with meat and cheese is a great alternative. I love to make all kinds of salads, but today’s is one that we have seen so many times on so many menus the famous Chef’s Salad. Let’s cook!!
Chef's Salad
You can use a dressing of choice, I like mine with Olive oil and white wine vinegar
1 head of iceberg lettuce
1 beef steak tomato
1 medium red onion
4 slices of baked or boiled ham sliced
4 slice of Swiss cheese sliced
Green olives pitted
2 hard boiled eggs
2 tbls Extra virgin Olive oil
1 tbls White wine vinegar
Salt and ground pepper to taste
Rinse and dry the head of lettuce, cut in 1/2″ slices
Cut the tomato into quarters then slice
Thinly slice the red onion, and the olives
Layer the ham and cheese and cut width wide into 1/2″ slice the cut in half
Chop your egg
Add all ingredients to a salad bowl and mix together
Salt and pepper to taste add olive oil and vinegar toss and serve
Buon Appetito!!
