I don't know about you, but I have a delicious memory of growing up and getting a slice of a pizza and a crunchy salad with tart red wine vinaigrette. It was a little spicy, tangy, and so distinct. I wanted to recreate that salad and the pizza is optional (but never a bad idea!)
Makes 2 lunch size portions
Salad
1 head butter lettuce chopped
1/3 cup shredded carrots
1/3 cup cucumber chopped
1/3 cup bell pepper chopped
1/4 cup pitted olives chopped
1/3 cup tomatoes chopped
1/4 cup celery chopped
1/2 cup chopped rotisserie chicken (optional but great for a more complete lunch)
Red Wine Vinaigrette
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
1 tsp adobo seasoning
1/4 tsp flaky sea salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
pinch of red pepper flakes
Add all the salad ingredients to a large bowl.
In small bowl whisk all dressing ingredients until well combined
Slowly pour dressing into bowl. Use just enough so salad is lightly coated, do not overdress
