A vegetarian spin on a classic salad, this wedge absolutely perfect drizzled with my miso tahini dressing. It's also easily made vegan with the omission of the feta crumbles.

Prep Time 5 minutes
Total Time 20 minutes

Ingredients
 

  • 100 g (3½ oz) cherry tomatoes quartered
  • 100 g (3½ oz) shitake mushrooms roughly chopped
  • 1 clove garlic finely chopped
  • 25 g (⅓ cup) panko breadcrumbs
  • 2 tsp nutritional yeast flakes
  • 1 head iceberg lettuce quartered through the root end
  • ½ red onion diced
  • 20 g (2 tbsp) feta cheese crumbled
  • Miso tahini dressing or dressing of choice

Instructions
 

  • Set a fine mesh sieve over a bowl and add the tomatoes. Season generously with salt. Set aside while assembling the salad.
    Prepping the tomatoes
  • Add 1 tbsp of olive oil to a large skillet and set over medium-high heat. Once shimmering, add the mushrooms along with a generous pinch of salt. Cook, stirring frequently, until the mushrooms have reduced in size, released their moisture and are deeply golden brown and crisp - about 8-10 minutes. Remove the mushrooms from the pan and set aside.
    Browning the shitakes
  • Drizzle and additional 1 tbsp of olive oil into the same skillet. Add the garlic and cook until just fragrant - about 30 seconds. Add the breadcrumbs and cook until toasted - 2-3 minutes. Off heat, stir in the nutritional yeast flakes and season with salt and pepper.
    Toasting the breadcrumbs
  • Arrange the iceberg quarters on the dish/es you wish to serve them. Top with the seasoned tomatoes, crispy mushrooms, breadcrumbs, red onion and feta crumbles, if using. Drizzle with miso tahini dressing. Serve immediately.
