So I know there a few salad threads on here but I want to gather everyone's hands-down, favourite, look-forward-to-it-while-at-work salads. Boring salads need not apply (although we all know they do have an important role in our lives sometimes).
So what are you drool-worthy salad recipes?
Some of mine to start things off...
Shaved Asparagus
- shaved asparagus (can do it raw but I like it cooked) and asparagus ends
- cherry tomatoes
- feta
- all mixed with lemon juice
- topped with a poached egg
French Salad
- When I was in Paris the bistros all had this type of salad (maybe someone on here knows more?)
- romaine lettuce with a light dressing, cucumber, etc
- goat cheese melted on a piece of toast or baguette placed on top of the salad
Chili Beans
- lettuce, tomato, cucumber, feta
- black beans, chickpeas (one or both) fried in chili powder
- sometimes I add baby shrimp to this one too
Broiled Pineapple
- spinach, avocado
- pineapple broiled with cumin, lime juice, salt, pepper and garlic
What other great salads are out there?
