I need your favorite salad combos! I usually spend so much money and calories grabbing fast food. I need to know what basic ingredients I should keep on hand. I am on a tight budget too.

    Mixed baby greens, dry roasted unsalted almonds, sliced bell pepper, craisins, crimini mushrooms, diced green apple, gorgonzola, and a basic vinaigrette. I make my own with EVOO, balsamic, and a dollop of dijon mustard to emulsify it.

    Cos lettuce, egg, shortcut bacon (a rasher), chicken breast, cherry tomatoes, some cheese & low cal caeser dressing.

    Feta is always good to put in a salad because of its creaminess, therefore you don't have to add any dressing (well I don't & if I do its a little splash of extra virgin olive oil & balsamic vinegar).

    I like the sweet onion dressing from Subway & used to put that on my salads when a friend got me a bag of the dressing from Subway otherwise we can't buy it here in Australia (in a jar).

    Lettuce, rocket leaves, corn, mushrooms, olives, tomatoes, and shrimp/crab sticks/chicken/salami/mozzarella cheese chopped up and sprinkled on top- YUM! Oh- and that Japanese salad dressing- delicious and non-fat, and low-cal! Wafu, I think it's called.
