Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 head Iceberg lettuce
- 100 grams Stilton cheese
- 200 grams Cherry tomatoes
- 50 grams Mixed herb leaves (e.g., parsley, cilantro, chives, dill)
- 3 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
- 1.5 tablespoons Balsamic vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Remove any wilted outer leaves from the iceberg lettuce. Cut it into quarters, remove the core, and chop into bite-sized pieces. Rinse thoroughly under cold water and spin dry in a salad spinner.
Wash the cherry tomatoes and slice them in half. Set them aside.
Rinse the mixed herb leaves in cold water and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel or spin them dry in a salad spinner. Roughly chop any larger leaves if needed.
Cut the Stilton cheese into small, bite-sized chunks or crumble it gently with your hands.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, honey, salt, and black pepper to make the dressing. Adjust seasoning to taste if necessary.
In a large salad bowl, combine the iceberg lettuce, mixed herb leaves, tomatoes, and Stilton cheese.
Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss gently to coat the ingredients evenly while keeping the Stilton intact.
Serve immediately and enjoy your fresh Iceberg and Stilton Salad with Herb Leaves and Tomato.
