Garbage Salad

Author: Kelly Donlea

Garbage Salad is a general description of a salad that has a plethora of ingredients that are not vegetables… thus making the salad not the healthiest option… though it can be oh so good!

My Father’s Day Garbage Salad included the following ingredients, served over one half a head of chopped lettuce.

  • 1 cup garlic and butter croutons
  • 1 package crumbled blue cheese
  • 6 slices firmly cooked bacon, chopped
  • 1 can marinated artichoke hearts, drained
  • 1/3 cup sliced black olives
  • Ranch DressingFor a healthier option, I could have substituted one half a diced avocado for the bacon, one half a cucumber, peeled, seeded and diced, for the croutons and used light dressing.
