Mother's Lettuce Tomato Chop Salad {Granny's Recipe}

When you want a go to salad to make, you want one that has simple ingredients and as few as possible.  For my go to salad, I always think of my Mother's Lettuce Tomato Chop Salad.   This is the salad I served with our meatloaf we had a couple of weeks ago.   

I grew up eating this salad mostly in the summer when the tomatoes were plentiful, but with fresh tomatoes readily available in the grocery store, that is not the case now! 

Mother chopped up iceberg lettuce, fresh tomatoes, and folded them all together with a cup of Miracle Whip.  I don't know if you have a liken for Miracle Whip or not, but growing up, I wouldn't use anything else.  Today is another story, with my husband being a fan of mayonnaise, I have switched over.

There is just something about this salad though, that on occasion will call me back to making it using Miracle Whip :)   

Lettuce Tomato Chop Salad

1 medium head iceberg lettuce, chopped
2 medium tomatoes, chopped
1 cup Miracle Whip (I use Mayonnaise)
salt and pepper to taste

In a large bowl, place lettuce and tomatoes. Fold in Miracle Whip, being sure not break up the tomatoes to much. Salt and pepper to taste when served.
