2 cups lightly packed small or torn large fresh basil leaves (2 oz)
1 medium cucumber, halved lengthwise and thinly sliced (2 cups)
6 radishes, thinly sliced (3/4 cup)
Cracked black pepper
Purchased croutons (optional)

2. In a very large salad bowl, toss together greens, basil, cucumber,
and radishes. Add dressing; toss to coat. Sprinkle with cracked black
