CHEF SALAD


This is an easy summer salad...and by serving it buffet-style, the kids love helping "make" their own!

Ingredients:
(adjust amounts depending on number of people feeding)
spring lettuce and spinach mix
cubed turkey
cubed colby jack and / or swiss cheese
hard-boiled eggs, peeled and diced
kernel (cooked) corn (either cut off cob or frozen/canned)
sugar snap peas, cut in half
cherry or grape tomatoes
sliced carrots
diced cucumbers
avocado chunks
black / Spanish green olives

Directions:
Prepare ingredients and place everything but the lettuce in separate piles on a large platter. Give each person a bowl of lettuce and let them create their own chef salad. Serve with your favorite dressing, such as ranch, Italian or honey mustard. Be creative with the ingredients...other options could be: leftover lunch meat, sliced; cooked and crumbled bacon; croutons; black bean salsa (see recipe under appetizers).
