Upgraded Wedge Salad
Ingredients
- 3-4 romaine hearts, butter lettuce or gem lettuce, quartered. Cut from the stem to make sure the core holds its leaves.
To make honey-mustard vinaigrette:
- 2 Tablespoons olive oil
- 2 Tablespoons Dijon mustard / brown mustard
- 2 Tablespoons grainy mustard
- 1 Tablespoons mayonnaise (optional)
- 3 Tablespoons honey
- Juice of 1 lemon
- 2 Tablespoons rice or red wine vinegar
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- Pepper
- Croutons (optional)
Instructions
- Combine vinaigrette ingredients and mix well. Taste. Adjust as needed.

- For the croutons: You can use store bought or make your own, toast pita bread or any bread you like and sprinkle on top just before serving.
