Martha's Favorite Salad

This recipe is from my friend Martha Marsh, whose salad is a huge favorite of my family. It's fresh, light and oh so healthy too!

Ingredients:

  • 2 cucumbers, peeled and thinly sliced
  • 1 head romaine lettuce, bite sized
  • 3 tomatoes, peeled (well, maybe not...) and diced)
  • 1 cup thinly sliced radishes (don't skip those; they add great crunch and flavor)
  • 1/2 cup thinly sliced onions
  • 1/4 cup chopped dill
  • 1/2 cup chopped parsley
  • 3/4 cup olive oil
  • 1/3 cup lemon juice (NOT vinegar)
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp pepper

Combine the veggies and herbs. Make a dressing by slowly drizzling the oil into the lemon juice, salt and pepper while stirring constantly. Pour dressing over salad and toss well.
