Salad with croutons
Description
Perfect for everyday meals. You can use store-bought croutons instead of homemade ones, but those fried in a pan are more aromatic. The same goes for sour cream, which, of course, can be replaced with mayonnaise. However, the salad with sour cream dressing is much more delicate. Garnish if desired and serve.
