1/2 cups Olive Oil, Plus 1 Tablespoon, Divided Use
2-1/2 whole Pita Breads
1/2 heads Romaine Lettuce, Washed, Spun Dry, Torn Into Bite Sized Pieces
1 whole Large Carrot, Cleaned, And Cut Into Bite Sized Pieces
1/4 cups Red Onion, Thinly Sliced
1/2 whole Yellow Bell Pepper, Cut Into Bite Sized Pieces
2 whole Small Seedless Cucumbers, Cut Into Bite Sized Pieces
1 whole Tomato, Seeded And Chopped
1/4 cups Flat Italian Leaf Parsley, Chopped
1 pinch Salt To Taste
1 whole Lemon, Juiced
1 clove Garlic, Minced
1/4 cups Fresh Mint Leaves, Thinly Sliced

1
Begin by taking the one tablespoon of olive oil and brushing it onto the pita slices. Preheat your oven to 400 F. Put the pitas onto a baking tray and put it into the oven, baking for about 12 minutes or until fully toasted.
2
During this time prepare your remaining ingredients, adding all of the vegetables and the parsley into a mixing bowl. Add a pinch of salt, and give it a good toss.
3
Next, make the dressing. Add the lemon juice, 1/2 cup olive oil, and garlic into a small mixing bowl. Use a whisk and mix until the olive oil emulsifies. Set aside.
4
Remove the pitas from the oven and set aside to cool. When fully cooled, break the pitas into bite sized pieces and toss them into the mixing bowl with the vegetables. Pour the salad dressing over the top, and mix to coat.
5
Let the salad sit in the dressing for at least five minutes to allow the bread to soak up some of the dressing.
6
Serve in a nice serving dish and dig in. The result is a salad that blew my wife away. She was startled by the flavors the mint dressing exposed. It looks like a standard dinner salad, but it isn't. It is actually better and offers a tart and minty flavor that has you coming back for more. And to me, that's not a bad thing. Hope you enjoy.
