Just a nice salad is fine with me :)
I love mixed greens with sliced red onion, mandarin orange segments, some cut up strawberries, feta cheese, slivered almonds and a balsamic vinagrette with a couple dashes of Italian seasoning blend added.
This is my go to salad anytime I need to bring one somewhere, it's always gobbled right up!
Pan fried goat cheese
Pesto
Honey melon
Arugula
Yummy! :)
Dark greens
carrots
pear tomatoes
cucumbers
kalamata or green olives
feta or blue cheese
rasperry viniagrette
dried cranberries
sunflower seeds
thinly sliced steak

Dark greens
tomatoes
cucumbers
roasted squash and zucchini
roasted portobellos (I get them from whole foods)
feta cheese
lemon viniagrette
I think a great salad is romaine lettuce, shredded carrot, feta cheese, craisins, toasted walnuts, a light vinagrette dressing.
One of my faves is below. I also love baby spinach (stems off), Craisins, toasted walnuts or pecans, blue cheese crumbles, and a homemade viniagrette. This is a salad I fix about 2-3 nights a week.

PACIFIC RIM CHICKEN SALAD
2 packages Asian ramen noodles with seasoning
4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, cooked and shredded
1 cup sliced almonds
1 can (16 oz.) mandarin oranges, drained
1 can (6oz.) sliced water chestnuts
1 cup vegetable oil (i leave most of this out)
3/4 cup sesame seeds
6 tbsp. vinegar
3 tbsp. sugar
1 head romaine lettuce
1 bunch green onions
Break up dry ramen noodles and combine wiht chicken in a large bowl. Toast almonds in a dry skillet just until they begin to brown. Add to chicken mixture. Toss with oranges and chestnuts.
In a medium bowl, mix ramen seasoning, oil, sesame seeds, vinegar, and sugar. Pour over chicken mixture, tossing to coat. Freeze in a zippered bag.
On the day you will serve it, thaw in the refrigerator and toss with lettuce and green onions. And remember, snip the lettuce and onions with kitchen shears; it's so much easier than using a knife.
Serve cold. Great with whole wheat rolls or poppy seed bread!
My 7 year old can eat two servings and still want more!
