Everyone needs a good basic green salad recipe, and this one has been a classic in our house for as long as I can remember. Both Tyler and I grew up with some variation of this salad on the table regularly. And it’s one of those recipes you never tire of because it’s easy to adapt. For instance, in the winter months, try diced red bell pepper in place of cherry tomatoes. Or mix up the greens by using the crunchier romaine, or slightly spicy arugula. From there you can continue the variations by changing up the kind of dressing you use as well. And once you get started making your own dressings, you may never look back because they’re so much tastier than store-bought, (and cheaper too)!
