Columbia's 1905 Salad - crisp iceberg lettuce with julienne baked ham, Swiss cheese, tomato, olives, grated Romano cheese and tossed with a garlic vinaigrette dressing.
Combine lettuce, tomato, ham, Swiss cheese and olives in a large salad bowl.
Before serving, add Romano cheese and dressing. Toss well and serve immediately. (*You may also leave dressing on the side to serve individually if desired)
Columbia uses less white wine vinegar about 1/8 cup in their recipe - my family loves a little more so I double it.
Notes
*Make the dressing the day before serving for best flavorIf you want to toss the salad with the dressing to serve, Add the Romano Cheese and desired amount of dressing just before serving.I often double the dressing to have extra . Often I serve the dressing on the side for people to top themselves for desired taste.The dressing is also a great dip for bread.adapted from Columbia Restaurant
