Instructions:

- In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, a dash of salt, and a dash of black pepper.
- Mix well until the dressing is emulsified (well combined).
- Finely mince 1 teaspoon of garlic. Ensure the pieces are small so they can evenly distribute throughout the salad.

Tips:
- Use fresh, crisp lettuce for the best texture and flavor.
- You can substitute romaine, iceberg, or mixed greens based on your preference.
- Adjust the amount of lemon juice and garlic to match your taste buds.
- Toss the salad gently to avoid bruising the lettuce leaves.
- For an added crunch, you can include some croutons or nuts.
- Consider adding a few cherry tomatoes or cucumber slices for extra freshness and color.
