Salad
- 200g fresh green salad leaves (such as romaine, lettuce, or mixed greens, chosen to your preference)
- 10 cherry tomatoes
- A little cheese for garnish (feta or mozzarella cheese recommended)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Begin by preparing your fresh green salad leaves. Wash them thoroughly under running water to remove any dirt or debris. Gently pat them dry with a paper towel for best results.
Step 2
Next, wash the vibrant cherry tomatoes. If they have stems attached, carefully remove them.
Step 3
Arrange your salad on a large serving plate. You can lightly chop the greens if desired. Create a circular wreath shape around the outer edge of the plate, leaving the center empty. A bountiful arrangement will look more impressive.
Step 4
Cut the cherry tomatoes in half. Place the halved tomatoes on top of the salad greens, cut-side up, spacing them evenly like little jewels around the wreath.
Step 5
Crumble or cube the cheese and scatter it artfully amongst the cherry tomatoes. This adds a touch of white, like a sprinkle of snow, and enhances the salad with a delightful salty and creamy flavor.
Step 6
Finally, drizzle the balsamic sauce over the entire salad. Be mindful of the amount to avoid over-seasoning. And there you have it – a beautiful and delicious Christmas Wreath Salad, ready to impress!
