Amazing Green Salad

My friend Brooke threw me the most amazing shower I've ever seen over the weekend. I swear that girl could overthrow Martha Stewart as the quintessential domestic goddess. She served a delicious lunch including this salad. I had to have the recipe. It has such a good taste with such a light and fresh dressing that it's perfect for a summer luncheon. It was a huge hit with all the guests.

Ingredients:
1 head romaine
1 head green leaf lettuce
1 c. cherry tomatoes, halved
2/3 c. slivered almonds, toasted
1/3 c. fresh parmesan, grated
3/4 c. swiss cheese

Dressing Ingredients:
1/4 c. fresh lemon juice
3/4 c. salad oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper

Directions:
Combine all the ingredients for the salad. In a blender, blend the ingredients for the dressing. Pour over the salad and toss to coat.
