- 1 cucumber
- 1⁄2 bunch dill

Dressing
- 1⁄2 cup olive oil

directions
- Nicely chop your lettuce as described in my complaint above.
- Make sure your lettuce is clean and devoid of any 6-legged creatures a.k.a "insects" that might pass as a piece of oregano.
- You may slice your scallions on a bias if you want to give the salad a gourmet flair.
- Slice your cucumber and pray that the seeds are not to ginormous. If they are, save this cucumber for tzatziki and try to find a nicer one with small seeds.
- Chop your dill.
- Place all ingredients in a bowl and toss.
- For the dressing just whisk and then dress the salad evenly coating the lettuce leaves.
- Add more dressing if desired.

Great salad! I didn't have fresh so I used dried dill. I also used a little more olive oil. I wanted it to be a main dish, so I added a can of tuna and some black olives. My husband really liked how fresh it tasted, but we both thought it could use a little vinegar so next time I'll use half lemon juice, half vinegar.

I am a young, gorgeous, domesticated nymph-like creature who stays at home and concocts delectable, saliva-inducing treats. I employ my husband as the guinea pig for anything I just randomly manage to put together. Not to worry, he is very pleased with his current position. No, but really, I am a young Greek-American wife who loves to cook, and being that I am unemployed at the moment, I like to experiment with lots of flavors and ideas. I am a Food Network Junkie, and I watch all the cooking shows on public television and Discovery Home. While I am fixated on all these programs, my brain behaves like a sponge and my culinary sensors go off like sirens. Other than that, my other talents include being a geek (Greek geek at that), drawing, writing, being multilingual, tutoring, writing papers for lazy college bums, doing housework (my house must be immaculate so I may eat off the floor at my own will), I love to play the old, very first Nintendo, and Nancy Drew computer games.
