Here’s how to make a green salad: take washed (and dried) pieces of lettuce, cut up carrots, radishes and cucumbers, and bread croutons . Put them in a bowl. Drizzle some salad dressing over the top.
Now mix it all up with 2 large spoons - this is called “ tossing the salad” -
to get the dressing on all the parts of the salad evenly.
Now you serve it and eat it!
It is NOT like tossing a pizza - which means to throw the uncooked ball of pizza dough in the air to get it into a pizza shape.
It is NOT like tossing a football - which means to throw it to someone who will catch the ball.
English is weird sometimes!
