I love to make my salads as beautiful as I can because it encourages me to "eat the good stuff". While I was eating my salad tonight my husband said it looked like a mountaintop, so that's what I decided to name it. LOL Hope you enjoy.

How To Make mountaintop salad

  • Step 1
    Slice the iceberg lettuce horizontal into the thickness you desire. Lay down on a large plate and cover with dressing of your choice. You could use a ranch or blue cheese and then an Italian on top to have two different flavors inside the salad.
  • Step 2
    Cut up all your ingredients and begin covering your lettuce slice with them, one by one. When all finished add your crushed croutons last. Now drizzle more dressing of choice. I used Italian and then drizzled in a circle the balsamic glaze.
  • Step 3
    Get a fork and knife and you are ready to eat a most beautiful Mountaintop Matchstick Salad.
