This is two of our favorite salads smashed together- guacamole, and a Greek salad. It took a little bit of thinking to figure out how to do it, but I settled on a deconstructed guacamole- avocado, shaved red onions, cilantro, and lemon juice, with some radishes added for some zip. The Greek salad has a few common elements- onion and lemon juice; so all I had to add wass some of the organic butter lettuce I had, feta cheese and some black Greek olives.
For the dressing, I decided on more of a Greek type dressing with some of our Tibvrtini Olio Extra Virgene di Oliva, and a blend of Tibvrtini Aceto di Vino Blanco and lots of lemon juice. I added some liquified garlic, dry oregano, and kosher salt and pepper.
It was awesome, and I have to say that the organic butter lettuce was really good, it had a much firmer texture than you find in most of the more delicate lettuce you see in the market.
Was it worth $3? Eh...... maybe once in a while.
