Lettuce, Corn and Pineapple salad
This is the quickest and easiest salad you can ever make.. And tasty too!
Ingredients:
Serves 4
- Salad leaves: A mixture of Lettuce leaves, Arugula, kale, baby spinach… Any salad leaf you might find- I big bowl
- Pineapple rings: Get fresh if available, else canned ones. I prefer canned as they are sweeter- 6 to 8 pcs (if you have cubes available, please use that)
- Boiled and cooled corn: 1 cup
- Baby tomatoes, slit into half – 1/2 cup
- Feta cheese: 1 cup ( can be replaced with any cheese of your choice)
Salad Seasoning:
- Sea salt- 1tbs
- Pepper- 1tsp
- Chilli Flakes- 1tsp
Mix them all together and set aside.
I tend to get a little lazy so i use this ready made mix.
Salad Dressing:
- Dry or fresh Basil- 1 tbs
- Dry or fresh Rosemary – 1tsp
- Dry or fresh oregano – 1tsp
- Olive Oil – 2 tbs
- Lemon juice – 1 tbs
- Mustard – 1/2 tbs
Mix all these ingredients together and keep it aside. What I do is, put them all in a bottle, close the lid tightly and shake it really well. The mixture emulsifies and then I keep it aside. While i prepare the rest, the herbs and oil soak into each other well.
Start putting it all together:
Add the corn kernels.
Yes there is half a slice..Thats coz i ate the other half.:)
Sprinkle the salad seasoning on the leaves and on top of the pineapple. Be a little generous with the seasoning on the pineapple. The salt chilli and the sweetness of the fruit gives a delicious flavour.
Your salad is ready!
Keep a few things in mind:
