Chef Salad

Chef Salad

by  Ava

I am making a chef salad for my assignment this week. I am doing this because I like to cook and bake and I thought it would be fun to do a chef's salad and for the vegetarians in the class I'm going to be making a Caesar salad. Chef salad has meat and vegetables along with cheese. The top off my salad I made some homemade ranch dressing that my mom always makes in the summer with fresh herbs from our garden, but since we don't have a garden right now we got herbs from the store.  I decided to make my own dressing because I think dressing really makes the salad taste great and I and I thought it would be fun if I made my own dressing. Everyone enjoys it because I worked really hard on it and really like cooking for other people.

The recipe for the salad dressing is

1 cloves garlic

1/4 teaspoon kosher salt

1 cup mayonnaise

1/2 cup sour cream

2 tablespoons Dill

1 tablespoon fresh chives

1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

half a teaspoon ground pepper

1/2 teaspoon white vinegar

1/4 a teaspoon paprika

1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper

-

¼ -½ cup buttermilk or cream

The recipe for the salad is

lettuce, tomatoes, Ham, Turkey,cheese and cucumbers but you can anything you would like.
