Ingredients

Dressing

4 cloves of garlic, minced
1 tsp oregano
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
½ lemon, juiced
⅓ cup olive oil
⅛ cup white vinegar
Salt & pepper to taste

Salad

1 head iceberg lettuce, chopped
2 fresh tomatoes, diced
1 stalk celery, diced
3 oz Swiss cheese, julienned
5 oz ham, julienned
½ cup pitted olives, sliced
2 tbsp Romano cheese, grated

Instructions

In a bowl, combine all the dressing ingredients: minced garlic, oregano, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, olive oil, white vinegar, and season with salt and pepper.

🍋 Fresh lemon juice adds a zesty kick that enhances the overall flavor. Feel free to adjust the amount based on your taste preference!

In a large salad bowl, add the chopped iceberg lettuce, diced tomatoes, diced celery, julienned Swiss cheese, julienned ham, and sliced olives.
Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients and toss vigorously until everything is well coated.

🥄 Tossing vigorously helps to distribute the dressing evenly, covering every bite with flavor!

Top with grated Romano cheese and serve immediately.

🧊 For a make-ahead option, prepare the ingredients separately and toss with dressing just before serving to keep the lettuce crisp.

Variations

Mediterranean Twist: Substitute the ham with grilled chicken or chickpeas and add feta cheese for a Mediterranean vibe. 🌿
Vegan Delight: Omit the ham and cheese, and add avocado slices and your favorite plant-based protein source for a filling dish. 🥑
Extra Crunch: Toss in your favorite nuts or seeds, like sunflower seeds or walnuts, for a delightful crunch. 🥜
Herb Infusion: Add fresh herbs like basil or parsley for an aromatic lift. 🌿

No matter how you customize it, Aunt Lynda's Sarasota Salad is a delicious way to celebrate your special moments! Enjoy! 🎉💚
