Summertime is when everyone loves to make a good salad to go with a barbecue. This dressing is homemade and delicious! Cilantro grows wild in my garden.
THE WORKS ROMAINE
LETTUCE SALAD
This salad is substantial and is very good served with a
Creamy Ranch Dressing or Cilantro Salad Dressing - see below this recipe. I paired this salad with my Mexican Lasagna.
5 cups chopped Romaine Lettuce (1.25 L)
1/2
cup grated Cheddar cheese (125 mL)
1/2
cup grated carrot, OR more (125 mL)
grated Cheddar cheese
4 hard-boiled eggs, chopped
4 slices cooked bacon, chopped
1 Roma tomato, chopped
In
large salad bowl, top Romaine lettuce with Cheddar cheese, grated carrot, OR
more grated Cheddar cheese, hard-boiled eggs, bacon and tomatoes (reserve some
of each for the top of the salad). Toss
gently to combine and top with reserved ingredients for an attractive
look.

CILANTRO SALAD
DRESSING
I am not a huge fan of cilantro; however, sometimes when I
buy parsley it comes with cilantro and green onions in a package. What to do with the cilantro? This dressing is tasty even to me.
1/2 cup mayonnaise (125 mL)
1/2
cup sour cream (125 mL)
1/2
cup chopped fresh cilantro (125 mL)
3 tbsp almond milk (45 mL)
1 tbsp lime, OR lemon juice (15 mL)
1 tbsp olive oil (15 mL)
2 tsp minced garlic (10 mL)
1/2
tsp black pepper (2 mL)
1/4
tsp salt (1 mL)
In
blender, combine mayonnaise, sour cream, cilantro, almond milk, lime, OR lemon
juice, olive oil, garlic, black pepper and salt. Blend well until smooth.
