Rick's Shredded Iceberg Salad
topped with Vermont Cheddar Cheese
Shredded Iceberg Lettuce Salad
Shredded Iceberg Lettuce Salad


When Trish and I make this salad we make a double batch, this way we have left-overs for a couple days, though the left-overs never make it past lunch the following day. The photographs don't due the salad justice, and certainly it's nearly impossible to describe the taste which is outstanding. Perhaps it's the shredded texture, perhaps it's the salad dressing, perhaps the cheddar cheese, who knows? One thing is certain though, everyone we turn this salad on to loves it!

Ingredients

  • 1 Iceberg Lettuce
  • 1 can Chick Peas
  • 3 medium Carrots
  • 2 Granny Smith Apples
  • 1/4 cup Dried Sweetened Cranberries
  • 1/4 cup Walnuts or Almonds (chopped or minced)
  • 3 Tsps. Maple Balsamic Vinaigrette
  • 1/2 cup Vermont Sharp Cheddar Cheese

Recipe

First, gently peel away the largest outer iceberg lettuce leaves and gently wash. Set them aside to air dry on paper towels. Try to maintain the leaf's bowl shape.

Next, chop and wash 1/2 the remaining iceberg lettuce and place in large bowl. Drain and add chick peas. Peel and using a cheese grater shred carrots and add to bowl. Wash and shred Granny Smith apples and add to bowl. Add cranberries and chopped walnuts. Add Maple Balsamic Vinaigrette. Add shredded cheddar cheese, saving some to sprinkle on top of salad. Mix all ingredients in bowl with large spoon.

Lastly, place one large iceberg lettuce leaf in each Individual American Bowl and fill with salad mixture. Sprinkle a little cheddar cheese on top and serve. Yield: 4-6 servings.

Cherry Wood American Bowl
The American Bowl


The individual-sized "American" wooden salad bowl, shown here in Cherry Wood, is the one we use for our Shredded Iceberg Salad because a large iceberg lettuce leaf fits nicely into the bowl's "V-shape". The bowl is available in Large and Individual sizes, and Cherry or Black Walnut woods. Made in Vermont by our friends at the Vermont Bowl Company & John McLeod Ltd.
