Green Salad

I love salad, but I tend to get crazy with it.. I'll add fruit, veggies, flowers, grains and nuts that some might not have even considered. So here is a paired down version of salad. Simple, crowd pleasing, delicious and healthy (before dressing). Feel free to play around with the veggie ingredients (I would), they are very interchangeable.

1 Head butter crunch lettuce (romaine works here too, but you could add some ice burg to give it more juice : / )
1 or 2 large slicing tomato, Diced
4 or 5 crimini or white button mushrooms, sliced
an avocado, cubed
1 carrot, Sliced thin (optional)
Dressing of your choice (ranch is heavenly, blue cheese would be nice to.. indulge)

Toss all the veggies together and top with your dressing of choice.
