Delicious Salads: Share Your Ideas Here!

In summary, there are many creative ways to make delicious salads, such as adding fruit, using different types of greens, and experimenting with homemade dressings. To make a healthy and satisfying salad, include a base of leafy greens, colorful vegetables, and a source of protein. You can also add flavor without high-calorie dressings by using homemade vinaigrette or fresh herbs and spices. When meal-prepping salads, wash and chop ingredients ahead of time and store separately for easy assembly. To make a salad more filling as a main dish, add a variety of textures, protein sources, and whole grains.

I am looking for new ideas for salads - so please share! :)
 
Do you mean for a demo, Jenna?

My three favorites to demo are:

Strawberry Spinach Salad
Deluxe Cheeseburger Salad

and my all time fav - 7 layer Southwestern Salad!


At home, I like to make a BBQ Chicken Salad.

Romaine, with shredded carrots, red onion, black beans, corn, cheddar cheese, and a grilled chicken breast - with a salad dressing made from half Ranch, and half BBQ sauce. Yummy!

That sounds like something my hubby would really like. Anything with BBQ sauce! :thumbup:

Sounds great Becky! I was more referring to salad recipes for home.
 
Chicken Ranch Salad! (I'm not sure the exact name, but a PC recipe)
 
It's an older recipe, but the Caesar Pasta Salad is awesome (I don't even like pasta salad much and I really like this one). And it's very easy to add chicken to it if you'd like, so it can go from a "side" item to a full meal.
 
Mandarin Pasta Salad is awesome. It's an OLD theme show recipe.

could you please post your salad recipes? Thx! :)
 
Colossal Chopped Salad...PC recipe in past SB. Chicken, Pasta, Romaine and lots of veggies. Demos a lot of tools. Shows great in the 8 qt coll. bowl or the SA square bowl. It is also my 8 yoa grandson's favorite so if you can get an 8 yoa boy to like a salad .... it is a keeper!
