Ingredients
- 1 cup Parmesan cheese
- 4 cups Mixed salad greens
- 1 cup Cherry tomatoes
- 1 Cucumber
- 1 small Red onion
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Balsamic vinegar
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat.
Step 2
Measure 1/2 cup of grated parmesan cheese and sprinkle it evenly in a circular shape (about 6 inches in diameter) on the skillet.
Step 3
Allow the cheese to melt and bubble for 2-3 minutes or until it forms a golden crust.
Step 4
Carefully lift the cheese round off the skillet using a spatula and place it over an inverted bowl or cup to create a bowl shape. Let it cool and harden for 5 minutes.
Step 5
Repeat the process with the remaining 1/2 cup of parmesan to make the second salad bowl.
Step 6
While the parmesan bowls are cooling, prepare the salad ingredients. Halve the cherry tomatoes, thinly slice the cucumber and red onion, and combine them in a large mixing bowl with the mixed greens.
Step 7
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, and black pepper to make the dressing.
Step 8
Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss to coat evenly.
Step 9
Place the parmesan bowls on serving plates and fill each with the prepared salad.
Step 10
Serve immediately for a fresh and crunchy dish!
