Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Make dressing: place all ingredients for the dressing except olive oil. Blend and then slowly add in olive oil while blending on low. You can also do this with an immersion blender. Set aside.
  2. Prep lettuce: Rinse, chop and dry romaine lettuce. I like using my salad spinner to dry it. Transfer chopped lettuce to a large salad bowl. 
  3. Add toppings: Add red onion, tomatoes, cucumber, olives and feta cheese. Add additional topping options, if desired. 
  4. Add dressing: Drizzle half of the dressing over the salad, toss and taste. Add more dressing, if needed.
