Time 20m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 romaine hearts
1 pint baby tomatoes, halved
1 English cucumber, peeled and diced
1 red pepper, cored, seeded and diced
1 yellow pepper, cored, seeded and diced
1 orange pepper, cored, seeded and diced
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice (about 1 large lemon or 2 small lemons)
1/3 cup olive oil
1/2 cup grated Pecorino Romano
1 clove garlic, smashed
25 grinds black pepper
Few pinches salt

Steps:

  • Cut off the brown and white tips of the romaine hearts then peel away the outer leaves; use just the ones that look like they'd make good serving cups. Chop up the remaining lettuce and set out in serving bowls along with all the other salad ingredients.
  • Make the dressing by combing all ingredients in a sealable container and shaking. The kids can do that.
  • Let kids decide what they want in their salad cups and how much dressing they'd like.
