I love salads, but I can never make a salad I like? Any recipes?

I have so many favorites! My two tops right now are:

BBQ Chicken Salad
2 heads chopped romaine
1/4-1/2 c ranch dressing

Mix all together in a big bowl.

Add: 6 oz bbq chicken (I like either slow cooker bbq chicken or just grilled bbq chicken)
1 can whole kernel corn, drained
1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
2 chopped tomatoes
1/2 c crushed tortilla chips

This makes a gigantic bowl of it that I'll serve my family of six from for two or three days. The sodium level is high, though, so be sure to drink LOTS of water if you're going to have it.

Strawberry salad
1 head chopped romaine
1/2 lb sliced strawberries
1-2 cans mandarin oranges, drained
craisins (just sprinkle on as much as you like)
feta cheese (again, as much as you like)
toasted walnuts (as much as you like)
1/4 c raspberry vinaigrette dressing

Toss the romaine with the salad dressing, then top with the rest of the ingredients. This is also great as a main dish if you want to add some grilled chicken to it and serve with wheat rolls. Yum!

Enjoy!
