Ideas for salads
« on: February 06, 2017, 07:22:30 am »
I've really been enjoying salads lately but I am running out of new ideas to put into them. I use boiled eggs, vegetables, sometimes apples. I am a picky eater, so there are a lot of things I don't like.

Anything you really like to put into a salad?  ???

Blue cheese (or any cheese), bacon, chicken (grilled), onion, fruits (like tomato, oranges, etc), n beans... That are some of the things that come to mind when I think of salad

I like feta cheese, cherry/grape tomato halves, avocado, and bacon on top of salads.  Strawberry slices are nice too, makes the salad look extra pretty :D

I love all different kinds of salads but the salad I make at home is just leaf lettuce and baby spinach mix and then I shred carrots, green onions, fresh mushrooms, cucumbers, broccoli, cauliflower, and then sometimes I may add ham or turkey and of course boiled eggs.  I sprinkle salad toppings on top and add Hidden Valley Ranch dressing.

I eat plenty of salads but my sister fixed one with grapes, cranberries and strawberries along with the other vegetables and I find that really good.
