View the previous or next recipe for this meal.

This rather naked retro salad is perfect for parties. Store it well-sealed without dressing in your fridge, allowing you access to tasty delicious salad for a few days. Feel free to improvise with veggies you have available such as heartier root vegetables such as carrots or beets and sturdier greens such as spinach.

Ingredients

  • 1 head butter head leaf
  • 1 head iceberg lettuce
  • 1 bunch radish
  • 1 cup peas
  • 1 cup sunflower sprouts, or your favorite sprouts
  • ½ head cauliflower

Serving Size: 6 People



 

Preparation Instructions

Boil water. Prepare a bowl of ice water.

Wash and dry each vegetable well.

Tear or shred the lettuce and sprouts, if needed.

Thinly slice the radishes or other root vegetables. Mince up the cauliflower or broccoli.

Pour the hot boiling water over the fresh or frozen peas. Dunk in ice water until chilled.

Layer the salad as you would a lasagna in thin layers. Alternate the green lettuce or sprouts with another vegetable to have a beautiful effect.
