I like making salsa and mixing it with some greek yogurt for dressing! With a salad with avacados, and slivered peppers and onions, and lots of greens, and jicama.. so good!

Oh and a vinaigrette I make.. I juice an orange, put about half that in a bottle with rind, balsamic vinegar, and a splash of olive oil. Its really good on salads with lots of fruit and Gorgonzola! Or if I have kumquats, I slice a couple up really thinly and put that instead of the rinds. It looks really pretty!

I love anything greek salad like lol so this is one of my faves:

cucumbers
tomatoes
red onion
red and/or green peppers
black olives (i dont like them )
and a can of drain and rinsed chick peas
little bit of feta crumbled
and italian, or sun dried tomato dressing or even a lil oil and vinager and oregano

the other one i like:
baby spinach
strawberries
madarine pieces
sunflower seeds or almonds or walnuts
raspberry vinegrette
and Feta!
never thought i'd put feta with fruit but in this salad it's amazing


and if Im looking for a higher calorie dinner salad, I'll do a beef or chicken taco salad with salsa and cottage cheese as my dressing

There is a salad at Sams Club made by Taylor Farms. It is Vegetable chopped salad in a bag..It is so good and its like a kit with sunflower seeds and a small packet of bacon bits. It has a little packet of dressing too. You mix it all up and it makes about 3 cups. It is 160 calories for 11/4 cups. Makes a great side with dinner or lunch.
