    My salads are rarely the same, yet always the same. Handful of whatever greens are handy. Either canned beans or tuna, or whatever leftover meat is in the fridge. Whatever crunchy vegetables are in the fridge. Maybe some cheese, maybe not. Dressing made with olive oil, some type of vinegar (I always have several varieties on hand), spices, maybe some type of mustard (always have several varieties on hand), maybe some type of hot sauce (always have several varieties on hand).

    I don't think I've ever really planned salad ingredients, other than the protein source.

    It helps that the buttercrunch lettuce was fresh from my garden. My daughter had passersby's commenting on her healthy salad.

    When I got bored of salads, I switched to winter vegetables and this:
