Cuban Tossed Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Whisk together the vinegar, lemon juice, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper to taste in a medium bowl. Whisk in the olive oil.
• Combine the radishes, tomatoes, lettuce and onions in a large bowl and toss with just enough dressing to coat. Top with the avocado.

Steps:

• Combine olive oil, lemon juice, orange juice, lime juice, minced garlic, salt, and pepper in a 1-pint container or jar with tight-fitting lid. Tightly close the lid and shake until the ingredients are well blended. Refrigerate until ready to toss with the salad, or up to 3 days.
• Combine chopped romaine, tomato wedges, sliced radishes, sliced red onion, and chopped avocado in a large bowl. Add as much dressing as you like, and toss all ingredients. Refrigerate unused salad dressing.
• Serve dressed, tossed salads on individual salad plates.

Steps:

• Arrange tomatoes, onion, lettuce, and radishes on a serving platter, or toss them together in a salad bowl.
• Using a blender, mix together garlic, olive oil, vinegar, lime juice, salt and pepper to make a vinaigrette type dressing.
• Chill the salad and dressing until ready to serve.

Steps:

• Combine romaine, tomatoes, avocados, onion, and black beans in a large bowl; toss to combine.
• Whisk lime juice, honey, garlic, cumin, salt, and pepper together in a small bowl. While constantly whisking, stream in the olive oil until dressing is well combined.
• Drizzle some of the dressing over the salad, toss, taste, and add more dressing if desired. If there's any extra dressing, refrigerate for later use.

Steps:

• Cut the tomatoes in wedges, cut the onion in thin slices. Break up the lettuce by hand.
• Toss all ingredients together with the radishes. Place all the vegetables in the refrigerator to chill.
• Use a mortar and pestle to mash the garlic with the salt and pepper. In a small bowl, add the olive oil, vinegar and lemon juice to the crushed garlic. Whisk together thoroughly.
• You can also use a blender to emulsify the oil and liquids.
• Just before serving: Gradually add the dressing, a little at a time, while you toss the salad with a couple of large salad forks.
• Add just enough dressing to cover the salad -- more or less to your own taste.
