Ingredients:

Forty Oaks Farm Salad Blend
2-3 butter lettuce leaves
1/8 c Lemon
2 c Olive Oil
2 tsp Kosher Salt
1 tsp White Pepper, ground finely

Servings: 4 as a salad

Use about 1.4 cup total of the herbs for each salad. The amounts in most stores herb packages are about the right portion size for 4-6 salads.

Salad Herbs:

Italian parsley
Basil, leaves torn
Cilantro
Dill
Organic edible flowers nasturtiums & calendulas

Pick and clean the herbs, you want the leaves to be whole (except for large basil leaves, they can be torn in half) and pick the petals off of the flowers. Dress the herbs and butter lettuce lightly with the simple lemon vinaigrette (see above). Place the butter lettuce leaves on each plate so that it forms a cup. Fill the lettuce cup with the herbs and sprinkle with flower petals. Serve.
