Ever Stuffed a Salad?


Our Stuff It! cooking class last Saturday was a great success. Big thanks to everyone who made it out through the crazy hail and rain to join us. One of the biggest show stoppers of the night is also the easiest to prepare. In fact, I made this dish last night for dinner guests. It never fails to impress.

Simply hollow out a large tomato
Cut Cucumbers, Avocado, Carrots, Bell Peppers into strips/sticks
Arrange the salad ingredients as if you are making a flower centerpiece
The best lettuce to use (for show) is a "spring mix" with all different colors and designs
Place the stuffed tomato on a small bed of mixed greens
Drizzle the top with this simple dressing; 2 parts mayo, 1 part sugar, 1 part vinegar (use red wine, or any flavor you like)

Stand back and get ready for the applause!

Cheers!
