Beth's Good Salad

Salad

• Mixed baby greens
• green onions, diced
• honey crisp apple
• toasted almonds
• shaved Parmesan
• croutons (directions listed below)
• top the salad with pepper!

Croutons

1. Cut bread small, add to a pan on low heat with equal parts butter and olive oil - maybe like 2tpsb of each?
2. Toast until all the liquid is absorbed and the bread starts to brown. Then lay out on a sheet pan, season them with salt and Italian seasoning or whatever you want, then toast in a 200 degree oven for 30-45 mins or until the bread feels crispy.

Dressing -- so I make this in descending amounts, I never measure but these are my best guess. Whisk until combined and it thickens then taste and adjust!

• 1/2 cup Oil or avocado oil
• 1/4 cup Balsamic vinegar
• 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
• 1 tbsp Maple syrup
• Good sized pinch Flaky salt
• Pepper
