as long as you do all the ingredients in order it should work,i had trouble at first too
because i was doing the toppings in different order instead of down the list

It doesn't matter what order you do the ingredients just make sure you put the lettuce
first and you cant mess up.

No matter what order I do the ingredients, and how often I go down the list, he never
accepts the salad. EVER. I follow the ingredients exactly, and in exact order.

No matter how carefully I follow the list doing it in order, he never excepts the salad
and I am stuck. Could it be a glitch in the game?

yep! same with me! and i can't even quit the darn cooking thing! >:(

your aren't making a salad. You are making quesdillas. Make sure you put the second one on
top and he will accept. I did the same thing until I figured out the second layer.

you have to add paprika to all the salads!
