Salad Recipe with Romaine

In this salad with Romaine, these particular vegetable additions work together exceptionally well for their crunchy texture as well as their nutrients offered. Particularly, adding Mrs. Dash makes it easier for the right balance of added seasonings for that great flavor not usually found in a regular salad.

Also, topping the salad off with Sunflower Seeds gives it a meaty impact. Not everyone wants those seeds so it’s an option.

Accordingly, this recipe is listed on our Christmas Dinner Meals Ideas article. There, you’ll also see other traditional and non-traditional fun recipes for main courses, sides, appetizers, salads, and breads.
