GET YOURSELF A LAWYER AND A GUN

There are two salads that my mum used to make in the summer that I love! Both are super simple too. One is a Strawberry salad that is basically just sliced strawberries, balsamic vinegar, a dash of pepper, and about times the amount of vinegar used of brown sugar (so a 1:3 ratio) tossed together. We don't really have recipe, we just go by taste. The other is a tomato salad and is made much the same. Sliced red tomatoes, basil (best if in strips), sliced mozzarella, olives (I like Greek Olives, but any really hearty olive will do), extra virgin olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and some pepper all mixed together.

I have several favorite salads. One of my favorites is one with baby spinach, heart of palms, blackened cajun chicken (or plain chicken strips, grilled), tomatoes, onions, mushrooms, cucumber and ranch or Italian dressing. Another favorite is romaine lettuce with shredded turkey, bacon bits, tomatoes, red onions, and balsamic vinegar dressing.

And strictly veggie salad, I prefer both romaine lettuce, baby spinach, tomatoes, onions, mushrooms, cucumbers, carrot shreds, and light dressing like Italian or light Caesar dressing.

I hope you'll give a try any of them.

I thought these looked pretty good:

I like salad with ranch dressing with the occasional bacon bits and croutons. Though I'm not a fan of thick veined leaves like romaine. I like spinach and radicchio more.

I think I might take a look into that second recipe, maybe omitting the cinnamon since my parents don't like it. I've never really had a fruit salad, but I think I might start making them.

Go ahead and shut the door on me. I'll just wait for another to open, and find my way back to you.

1 cup sweetened dried cranberries (Such as Craisins)
3/4 cup apple juice
1/2 cup zinfandel wine, or other fruity dry red wine
1/2 cup cranberry juice cocktail
3 tablespoons shallots, minced
1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 tablespoon walnut oil
10 cups lettuce, gourmet salad greens preferred
3 cups apple, cubed (Gala, about 2 apples)
1 cup sweet onion, thinly sliced
1/3 cup walnuts, coarsely chopped

1. Combine cranberries and apple juice in a medium saucepan; bring to a boil. Remove from heat; let stand 10 minutes. Drain cranberries; discard apple juice. Set cranberries aside.

2. Bring wine and cranberry juice to a boil in pan, and cook until reduced to 1/3 cup (about 8 minutes). Pour wine mixture into a medium bowl; add shallots, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Gradually add oil, stirring with a whisk.

3. Combine cranberries, greens, apple, and onion in a large bowl. Drizzle dressing over salad; toss gently to coat. Sprinkle with walnuts.

salad greens (i usually buy the Dole Field Greens bag salad)
pineapple chunks
mandarin oranges
fresh sliced strawberries
sunflower seeds (also good with sliced almonds or chopped walnuts)

for the dressing, i buy fat free poppyseed dressing, pour a little into a bowl and mix in pineapple juice to tie it all together. It's delicious, and pretty much what I live off of in the summer (: And it's really light and colorful!

Watch "The Fall"!

Hmmm I really love all kinds of salads

I would try one with ginger dressing and ice cold tomatoes + lettuce

if you're into something like a chicken/tuna salad
Recently my family has had to adjust their diet because of my dad's heart condition. We made tuna salad without mayo and replaced it with avocado!
Light, healthy, a little crunch. If you're a fan:
1 can tuna (oil, drained)
1/3 of small white onion diced
1 stem of celery chopped
pepper to taste
1 avocado mashed with spoon
1 tablespoon relish

Just mix and chill! Goes great with toast and a little slice of tomato.

愛のために

I hate salad, actually. I make a mean stir-fry and a fruit salad that my mom loves. I just eat the fruit I like while making it.

Fruit Salad:
1 bag green seedless grapes
1 bag red seedless grapes
1/4-1/2 of a watermelon (seedless or seeds, doesn't matter)
2 Granny Smith Apples
2 Yellow Delicious Apples
1/2 box strawberries
1/2 box blueberries

Wash all of your fruit. Cut strawberries into slices Cut watermelon into cubes/squares. Core and cut apples into slices. Don't forget to pick the grapes off the cut vine! Put fruit in a large bowl in the following order: Watermelon, Granny Smith Apples, blueberries, red seedless grapes, yellow delicious apples, green seedless grapes and strawberries. You can switch the amounts depending on how many you're serving or to which foods you prefer most. You can toss it if you like but be careful. I like the layered look of the fruits. You can substitute other fruits if you like. I occasionally add a bit of sugared strawberries and for that I just put about 1/4 to 1/2 of sugar in a tupperware container, add sliced straw better, pop on the tupperware cap and SHAKE. Then just put the strawberries as your top most layer in the salad.
