The "Oops I forgot to make a real vegetable" salad


This salad is really good and easy peasy japaneasy (yep, that's pretty dorky)... parenthood will do that. :) So, you can literally whip up this salad in 5 mins flat. Most likely you'll have most of these ingredients in your fridge and pantry. 


What's in this salad you ask?
Lettuce of some sort
Tomatoes any kind
Feta or any cheese you like
Bread for croutons*


Dressing;
Olive oil x 1/2 cup
Red w. vinegar x 1/4
Dijon mustard x 1 Tablespoon
garlic clove x 1
Salt & b.pepper x as needed
Sugar x as needed
Blend dressing up with a blender or immersion stick blender, if you have neither (REALLY??) just do it the good ole fashion way with a whisk or fork. 


Croutons;
I used some old ciabatta cut up into little cubes, toasted in a saute pan first. Once they started to toast up I drizzled in some olive oil and roughly chopped herbs (oregano, parsley) that's just what I had on hand feel free to use whatever you like or have. Croutons should be coated slightly and toasted, add salt and pepper.
