salad recipe

This salad is a perfect combination of colours, taste and freshness. Its pungent flavour, often slightly earthy works well with the dressing.

In this post I am going to explain how to prepare the mixed salad- bruschetta bread- cutlets

Serves 4

Ingredients for the salad

Preparation of mixed salad

Wash the mixed lettuce salad, cut lettuce leaves into small pieces. It is will be easier to eat the salad when it is ready.
Now cut the cherry tomatoes. Add them to the salad.
Add a pinch of oregano. Then add the olives and the cheddar cheese.
Mix all the ingredients together and when done, add a pinch of salt.
Tip: add now the balsamic vinegar if you like it, before the extra virgin olive oil.
Mix and serve. I love salads and I always prepare them at least twice a week.

Ingredients for the bruschetta:

8 slices of ciabatta bread, sliced as suits you.
extra virgin olive oil, for brushing
1 large garlic glove, peeled and helved
To prepare the ciabatta, brush both sides of the bread with some oil. Toast both sides under a grill until lightly golden in colour. Rub one side of the bread with the cut side of garlic glove.

To complete the dish, prepare the cutlets.
Tip: To give this shape you can work the chicken with your hand after cutting each chicken breasts into small pieces.

When it is ready to serve, put one slide or 2 of ciabatta bread on each salad place.
Layer the salad leaves or on the top or as side as I did.
Repeat with the other ciabatta bread. Then scatter some more cheese on the top if it suits you.
Place two or three tomato halves around the ciabatta.

Now enjoy this meal, as much I did. Any one will love it especially kids.
