Notes
- I used a 6-ounce bag (175 grams) of lettuce leaves for this tossed salad recipe.
- You can use white, yellow or red onion or omit it completely and use only chives. However, it does give this tossed salad a nice crunch.
- Fresh chives can be omitted.
- You can add more, if you like. I don’t recommend substituting olive oil for other type of oil!
- This salad is best enjoyed right away. Any leftovers should be kept in an airtight container in the fridge and consumed within a day. If you want to make it ahead, I recommend leaving the olive oil out and pouring it over the salad right before serving.
