I love salads. My favorite is a simple shrimp salad that I do with chopped salad size shrimp, green onions, a little mayo and mustard, salt and pepper. It’s yummy. I just found a chicken salad recipe in Better Homes and Gardens that I want to try as well.

Tabouli is a great salad! I also love rocket with raddishes and grapes, and tomato mozerella and basil! Frugal Trenches's last blog post..Daily Tracking, Frugal Meals and Saturday Groceries

Sounds so yummy… I feel like making salad now! (only in the last two weeks have I really been “in” to making my own salads at least once a day… this is due to the great spinach and lettuce in my garden! And the cute pot of herbs helps to flavor the dressings nicely.

I LOVE a great spinach salad… To the greens, I add wilted mushrooms, crumbled bacon, hardboiled egg, and sometimes some cheese and red onion. The dressing, if you’re dining right away, is really great warmed up… 1/2 c. oil, 2 Tbsp. red wine vinegar, 2 Tbsp. sour cream, 3/4 tsp. salt, 1/2 tsp. dry mustard, 1 Tbsp. sugar, 2 tsp. fresh parsley, 1 clove garlic, freshly ground pepper. This is fabulous!

We love caesar too… if it’s the main course, I chop and fry some chicken breasts to toss in.

One of my favorite things about being in France was the delicious homemade salad dressing every night at dinner. It was so good! I have tried duplicating how my host family made it, but I have yet to get it right. I will try what you suggested and see how that turns out.

Here in the States I also love Cobb salad. Fried chicken salad is really good too, just not good for you.

I like pasta salad too – for mine I just use rotini noodles, feta cheese, red onions, carrots, lightly cooked broccoli, and balsamic dressing. I toss the cheese in last, right before it’s served (cold).

I like a simple chicken Cesar salad.

Our lettuce is getting really big, I think we’ll have salads tonight too, with homegrown lettuce, spinach, greenbeans, and tomato.

Mmm. My husband made an amazing salad last night -it was an "everything" salad: lettuce, cucumber, red pepper, tomato, onion, baked tofu, boiled egg, potato, macaroni, and grated cheese! Michelle's last blog post..Becoming a Family of Two
