Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 small head iceberg lettuce, chopped
  • 2 cups romaine lettuce, chopped
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup croutons
  • 1/4 red onion, thinly sliced
  • 4 tbsp mayonnaise
  • 2 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Method
 

  1. Whisk together the 4 tbsp mayonnaise, 2 tbsp Dijon mustard, 2 tbsp honey, 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar, and 1/4 tsp garlic powder until smooth and pale yellow, about 1 minute. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  2. Soak the 1/4 sliced red onion in cold water for 5 minutes, then drain and pat dry.
  3. Combine the chopped iceberg, 2 cups romaine, 1 cup halved cherry tomatoes, and drained red onion in a large bowl. Toss gently for 30 seconds.
  4. Divide among 4 chilled plates, drizzle each with 2 to 3 tbsp dressing, and top with the 1/2 cup shredded cheddar and 1/2 cup croutons. Grind black pepper over each plate and serve immediately.

Notes

The dressing is easy to adjust once you taste it, so don't skip that step before plating. If you're making this ahead for a gathering, keep the croutons in a separate bag and add them at the table, since they go soft within a few minutes of hitting the dressing. The honey mustard also doubles as a solid dipping sauce if you have leftovers.
