A Pretty Good Romaine and Green Leaf Salad

Submitted by Toni in Colorado

"Basic green salad with a sweet mayonnaise dressing. Guessing on the measurements as I just add what I think will work. I use a shallow Teak wooden salad bowl that is only about 2 inches high so all the small ingredients don't fall to the bottom and get lost like they would in a deep bowl. Using a shallow dish, you can make a real pretty display. If you're not a radish fan, you'll be surprised how good they are with this dressing."
