A Simple Salad: Shredded Romaine & Dill Recipe

T his simple salad has become a recent favorite around our house. I can’t seem to get enough since first making it at The Conscious Gourmet Cooking Retreat I attended in Sedona with my sister last month. All of the food was delicious, but this was a revelation — how can something so simple be so good?

With just three ingredients — romaine, dill, and scallions — and a simple vinaigrette, I find myself turning to it regularly.
