Wilted Romaine and Red Onions

Ingredients:

1 head romaine, medium

½ cup mushrooms, sliced

6 tablespoons of olive oil

1 red onion, large, thin crescents

1cup toasted croutons

2 tablespoons red wine vinegar

1 teaspoon anchovy paste

Prepare mushrooms by brushing them lightly with a wet paper towel to clean them (washing them will take away some of the flavor) Slice them thin. Prepare romaine by tearing them in half.

Heat 5 tablespoons of oil in a large skillet.  Add mushrooms and sauté over medium heat for about one minute.  Add onions and sauté with the mushrooms (and toss them lightly) for another minute. Add lettuce and sauté until just wilted. Add croutons and toss everything together, then quickly remove from heat. Put in a salad bowl.

Put 1 tablespoon of oil in the same skillet and beat together red wine vinegar and anchovy paste, heating lightly, and immediately pour over romaine mixture, add sea salt to taste, toss and serve.

Try to get an organic or natural anchovy paste. The anchovy paste will add a salty taste so you may not need salt at all!
