The Canilis Salad

1 cup Bacon
1 Egg
1 large head Romaine
1 Lemon
1/2 cup Croutons
1/2 cup
Olive oil
1/2 teaspoon
Freshly ground pepper
1/4 cup Green Onions
1/4 cup Romano Cheese
1/4 teaspoon
Oregano
2 tablespoon
Mint
2 Tomatoes

Into a large bowl place the tomatoes, cut in eighths. Add the Romaine, sliced in 1-inch squares. Then add green onions, cheese, bacon, oregano and mint. To make the dressing, put the pepper, lemon juice and coddled egg in a bowl and whip vigorously. Then slowly add olive oil, whipping constantly and tasting as you do. Pour over salad and toss thoroughly. Add croutons and a sprinkle of Romano cheese last. Serves four to six.

Answer 4

My favorite is a spinach and orzo salad. It's just 1 cup of orzo, boiled off. Half a bag of fresh spinach, some toasted pine nuts, a can of drained and rinsed garbanzo beans, a lemon vinaigrette, and crumbled feta. (Really, you can add more or less to this, sometimes I use mushrooms or sun-dried tomatoes.)

My lemon vinaigrette:

1/3 cup olive oil
Juice of 2 lemons
Zest of one
Big spoonful minced garlic
Big pinch of dried oregano
Kosher salt and fresh ground pepper (it's great if you grind your own 4 peppercorn mix)

Shake well and dump on the salad!

Answer 5

4 cup house salad blend fresh, chilled
1/4 cup julienned red onion 1/4" by 2"
1/4 cup julienned carrots 1/8" by 2"
1/2 cup crispy noodles
1/4 cup drained mandarine oranges whole segments
6 x julienne red peppers 1/4" by 2"

3 x tomato wedges 8th cut
1/4 cup blue cheese crumbles
2 tbl sour cherries
3 tbl julienne cucumbers 1/8" by 2"
2 oz honey lime dressing on side
1 x bread stick warm

Place salad greens in center of plate. Do this using small mounds and fluffing to make the salad as high as possible. Do not spread and flatten around the plate. Evenly distribute onions, carrots and noodles over salad greens.

Evenly distribute the oranges, julienne red pepper, then the walnuts over the salad mixture. Place the tomato wedges at 10:00, 2:00 and 6:00 on plate. Top salad with blue cheese crumbles and sour cherries, place the julienne cucumbers in three equal mounds between each tomato wedge.

Place dressing in ramekin and place at top right rim of plate. Place bread stick on right rim of plate.
