Everyone wants a little classic meal that doesn’t have all those new ingredients. When your tired and need a late dinner all you want is a good classic meal.
mid your like me and you like snacking but don’t want to eat bad snacks…then salad is your go to snack. even in cold weather a salad never fails!
my mom makes a delicious dressing that I’d call an Italian dressing. She makes it all the time and it’s always a favorite!
Vegan option (V)
I know some of you are vegans out there and I try to have an option just for you on all my recipes. I’m not a full blown vegan but I try to be. For this vegan option you can substitute Parmesan cheese for vegan Parmesan cheese or leave it out completely.
Gluten free option (GF)
use gluten free croutons, and check to make sure the rice vinegar is gluten free.
