Refreshing Salad of Lettuce and Eggs

Ingredients

  • 1 head of fresh lettuce (washed and torn into bite-size pieces)
  • 3 boiled eggs (sliced or chopped)
  • 1 small cucumber (thinly sliced)
  • 1 medium tomato (chopped or sliced)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil (or your preferred dressing)
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice or vinegar
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Optional: fresh herbs (parsley, dill, or chives)

Instructions

  1. Wash and prepare the lettuce, cucumber, and tomato. Place them in a salad bowl.
  2. Slice or chop the boiled eggs and add them on top of the vegetables.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper to make a simple dressing.
  4. Drizzle the dressing over the salad.
  5. Toss gently to combine, or leave the eggs arranged on top for a nice presentation.
  6. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired.
  7. Serve immediately as a refreshing side dish or a light meal.

Do you want me to make this super light and quick (like a 5-minute salad), or a slightly richer version with cheese, croutons, or a creamy dressing?
