New York Style Chopped Salad

I made a salad last Friday that was inspired by some scrumptious and enjoyable salad bar experiences I’ve had during recent trips to New York City…where my older daughter and I happen to be visiting this week.

Here’s how the New York salad bars go, and maybe I need to get out more, but I just think it’s miraculous: There are different selections of greens, then basically any and every salad topping you can think of: kidney beans, avocado, mushrooms, olives, tomatoes, etc. Like, at least fifty toppings.

Then the guy/gal behind the counter says “What greens do you want?” And you tell them the greens you want. And they grab some of those greens with tongs and throw them into a clean stainless bowl.

Then you basically go up and down the rows of toppings, shouting out all the goodness you want them to add into the bowl, which is everything if you’re me.

Then the guy says “What kind of dressing do you want?” And you tell him “blue cheese” if you’re me, and he plops some of that into the bowl.

Then he tosses it like nuts, then he asks you one final—and very important—question:
“Do you want it chopped?”

And you say yes. A thousand times yes.

REE_3341So here’s what I’m thinking: How fun would it be to have a salad party? But here’s the angle: Have all your buddies each bring a different topping.

It’ll, like, totally cut down on your prep time.

And it’ll be fun for everyone to be involved!

Or you can just prep it all yourself.

REE_3342Among other things, you can have sliced hard boiled eggs…

REE_3344Diced red and yellow bell pepper…

REE_3345A buncha olives…

REE_3346Radishes…

I love radishes. The pepperier the better.

I realize pepperier is not a word.

REE_3347Grilled chicken, cut into pieces…

REE_3348Asparagus! I blanched it, then cut it into pieces.

REE_3349Miniature marshmallows! Just kidding. These are little balls of fresh mozzarella. Dangerous for me, because all I want to do is pop them in my mouth until they’re all gone.

REE_3350And of course: tomatoes. I love halved grape tomatoes. They bring me joy.

And basically you can keep going with whatever ingredients you’d like!

REE_3354For each individual salad, throw in the greens of choice. I chose mixed greens.

REE_3355I also chose Bibb.

REE_3357I also chose Romaine hearts.

Sorry. Couldn’t make up my mind.

REE_3358Then I threw in asparagus…

REE_3360Chicken, bell peppers…

REE_3361Some kidney beans…

REE_3364Mozzarella…

REE_3365Tomatoes…

REE_3367(Prayer of St. Francis.)

(Amen.)

REE_3369Green bell pepper rings. I didn’t feel like dicing anymore.

REE_3372More Romaine. You know, because I was afraid I wouldn’t have enough.

Geez.

REE_3375So once you have the bowl all loaded up, drizzle in a little dressing.

Blue cheese is my poison. What’s yours?

REE_3379So then it’s all about the toss! Get everything coated evenly…

REE_3380Then it’s all about the chop! Pour the salad onto a cutting board…

Then grab two knives and get ready to have a little fun, man.

REE_3382Chop chop chop!

REE_3385If things fly, that’s good.

REE_3387Just keep on chopping…

REE_3389Until it’s to the level of…um…choppedness you want. This looks perfect!

REE_3399Then just serve it up on a plate!

The last time I ordered one of these in New York, I chose so many toppings that the salad wouldn’t fit in the size I ordered.

I had to upgrade a size.

It was a little embarrassing.

REE_3405Man, was this a fabulous Friday salad!

It’ll make a magnificent Monday salad, too.

And a tremendous Tuesday salad.

And a wonderful Wednesday salad, of course.
