    I love goat cheese crumbles, dried cranberries, salad toppers (comes in a bottle) and raspberry vinaigrette.

    Just had a salad tonight that had gorgonzola, artichoke hearts, dried cranberries, sliced grapes, grilled chicken, and a wine vinaigrette. YUM!

    Love the pump bottle Salad Spritzers....only one calorie a pump! And if i feel like something creamy, I put a couple tablespoons of Tzatziki (a greek cucumber/yogurt dip) on a salad. Yummy, lots of flavor, and only 25 cal. per TB.

    I got a dried mix of red & green bell peppers with white onions.. it is AMAZING on salad.. since it's dried all that flavor is packed in a small area. Really, it tastes similar to bacon bits, to me, on a salad. -- All the other toppings I like have been mentioned. 1 slice of bacon isn't bad in itself.. that might be a decent thing to add to salad for the flavor.

    My friend made his own salad dressing out of fresh garlic cloves, sundried red bell peppers (generally I found these jarred in oil at the store), and balsamic vinegar. Run that through the blender and it makes a very flavorful, zesty salad dressing at very low calories.

    I make ranch dressing out of the Hidden Valley packets but use 3/4 of the mayo as fat free mayo, to 1/4 of real mayo and use unflavored almond milk. It's as low as I can get while still retaining flavor of real ranch.

    I have a few go to salads:

    1. Mixed greens with grilled chicken, avocado, 1 slice bacon, tomato and salsa.
    2. Baby spinach with craisins, walnut (half ounce), apple/pear, and a protein like salmon or chicken.

    I could probably put anything on a salad and be happy with it. The cafe in my office even does a Ruben salad - like a Ruben sandwich just no bread and on the mixed greens.
