Instructions:

1. Prepare the Greens:

   • Wash and prepare the spring greens, ensuring they’re fresh and vibrant. Store them in a sealed airtight plastic bag in the refrigerator until you’re ready to serve.

2. Assemble the Salad:

   • Arrange the prepared greens in individual salad bowls or on salad plates, dividing them evenly for a visually appealing presentation.

3. Top with Freshness:

   • Enhance the salad with sliced green onions and juicy tomato wedges or slices. This adds layers of flavor and a burst of color to your dish.

4. Cheese and Crunch:

   • Elevate your salad with the richness of crumbled blue or Roquefort cheese. If you’re feeling a bit more indulgent, toss in some crisp croutons for that delightful crunch.

5. Creamy Tomato Dressing:

   • In a blender container, combine cider vinegar, sugar, tomato base chili sauce, catsup, Worcestershire sauce, onion, garlic, prepared mustard, and paprika (ingredients 1 to 11).

6. Blending Perfection:

   • Cover and blend at medium speed for 30 seconds. Uncover and, with the motor at low speed, gradually add the olive oil, ensuring a smooth and well-mixed dressing.

7. Season and Beat:

   • Season the dressing with salt and pepper to taste. Cover and increase the motor speed to high, beating for an additional 30 seconds to achieve a creamy and well-emulsified texture.

8. Storage Tip:

   • Store the Creamy Tomato Dressing in an airtight glass container or jar in the refrigerator for up to two weeks. This allows you to enjoy the goodness of this dressing over multiple servings.

9. Olive Oil Variation:

   • For a nuanced flavor, you can use about 1/4 to 1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil and 1/3 to 1/2 cup of other salad oil instead of the specified amount. The flavor of 3/4 cup olive oil can be intense, so feel free to adjust according to your taste preferences.

10. Cheese Infusion (Optional):

    • If you’re a cheese lover, consider adding 1/2 cup crumbled blue or Roquefort cheese to the prepared dressing. Alternatively, mix in 1/2 cup crumbled cheese while beating and stir in an additional 1/2 cup after preparation for an extra cheesy kick.
