This Simple, Salty, Super-Umami Salad Has Just Five Ingredients

Oven-roasted tomatoes and anchovies pack this two-step salad recipe with seriously huge flavor.

Have you been trying to eat "healthy," but found yourself complaining in between mouthfuls of undressed kale and day-old quinoa that it's like soooo harrrrrrd and tastes boringgggg?

No more excuses. This salad has just five ingredients—many of which are already layin' around in your fridge—and requires a whopping two steps. Oven-roast your tomatoes until they bubble and slightly caramelize, then toss them with crunchy little gem lettuces, super-salty anchovies, parsley, whatever vinaigrette you happen to enjoy making or just have on hand, and, of course, a generous sprinkle of salt and pepper.

Boom. You're done.
