This mixed salad includes all of the usual suspects, dressed with a tangy, not too garlicky vinaigrette that may become your house dressing. Do you like other things (beets, garbanzo beans, or carrots) in your salad? Be our guest to change the formula.

Portions: Makes 6 to 8 servings

Ingredients:

  • Vinaigrette 
  • 3 tablespoons red wine vinegar 
  • 1 teaspoon minced fresh basil 
  • 1 small garlic clove, minced
  • 1 pinch of dried oregano 
  • ¹⁄2 cup plus 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil 
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper Salad
  •  6 ounces (8 cups) mixed salad greens, washed and spun dry 
  • 1 celery heart (about 6 ribs), cut crosswise into ¹⁄4-inch-thick slices 
  • 1 ripe tomato, seeded and cut into ¹⁄2-inch dice 
  • 1 small cucumber, peeled, cut in half lengthwise, seeded, and cut into ¹⁄8-inch thick half-moons 
  • 1 small fennel bulb, cut in half vertically, core discarded, bulb cut crosswise into ¹⁄8-inch thick half-moons 
  • ¹⁄2 small red onion, cut into thin half-moons, soaked, if desired
  • ¹⁄2 cup pitted and coarsely chopped kalamata olives 
  • ¹⁄4 cup (1 ounce) freshly grated Parmesan cheese (optional)

Preparation:

To make the vinaigrette, whisk the vinegar, basil, garlic, and oregano together in a medium bowl. Gradually whisk in the oil. Season with salt and pepper. Toss the greens, celery, tomato, cucumber, fennel, onion, and olives together in a large bowl. Add the vinaigrette and toss again. Sprinkle with the Parmesan, if using. Serve immediately. Dip a piece of lettuce into vinaigrette to taste and judge the seasoning by itself, the vinaigrette will seem too sour.
