Add a blend of dark salad greens to a dinner size salad bowl. I usually like spinach & arugula for this salad.
Add sliced tomatoes & thin sliced red onion. Next, add a handful of croutons, I like to simply toast some sourdough bread.
Pour a can of sardines & oil over the top. Be sure to select wild caught seafood in a quality olive oil… this will be your dressing.
Generosity garnish with lemon wedges & serve with ground pepper & sea salt.
