My family loves romaine lettuce, so I usually get one that contains at least some romaine in it. If you get a bag that has a blend of lettuces, it looks very pretty in the bowl. I will add cucumbers, green bell peppers and cherry tomatoes. You don't really need anything fancy to make it taste good. I make homemade Italian Dressing by purchasing the Good Seasons ITALIAN All Natural Salad Dressing & Recipe Mix (4 packets in a small box). All you need to make it is cider vinegar (cider or white), water and vegetable oil and place in a "cruet". FOR THE BEST VEGI DIP mix 1 packet with a container of sour cream. Refrigerate for a couple of hours OR overnight.|||Squirrel salad.
