1/4 tsp. sea salt
1/4 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
2 handfuls roughly torn romaine lettuce leaves
2 fresh Roma tomatoes, cut into 1/2-inch rounds *
1/2 green pepper, julienned
1/4 sm. red onion, thinly sliced (to taste)

Comments from trudt :

This simple salad makes a delicious side dish for any type of Mediterranean cuisine - including Greek, Italian, Spanish, Provencal, Moroccan or Turkish.

Variations: There are lots of possible additions to this basic salad, but keep in mind that it should remain a simple and light salad to accompany a meal. Toss through some garlic-rubbed croutons or a handful of chopped toasted nuts (like walnuts, pine nuts or hazelnuts), finely chopped capers, olives, sun-dried tomatoes or chopped anchovies, or a small amount of shaved or crumbled cheese.

* You can also use regular tomatoes and cut them into wedges
