I'm really enjoying lots of different salads at the moment an am looking for new ingredients or recipes. What's your favourite?

Also looking for low calorie dressing ideas too! Thanks :)

    i love adding chick peas to mine (add them to everything i think) and almonds and/or sunflower seeds just have to watch them since they add cals fast.

    I don't know how to look it up.. but there is an awesome post i think under recipes that lists literally about 100 different kinds of salads to make..

    If you can find it you will have more ideas then you know what to do with!

    My favorite homemade dressing (works well for cold pasta dishes too):

    Two gloves garlic, chopped
    a bit of onion, chopped very small
    let the garlic and onion soak in 1/4 cup of lemon juice
    add 1/4 cup EVOO and 1/4 cup white wine vinegar
    add 1/2 teaspoon of basil and oregano
    1/4 tsp salt OR 1 squirt of brown mustard
    1/4 tsp black pepper
    1/2 tsp white sugar

    edit: Those measurements are kinda made up, I have no idea how much I use. Do what feels right haha

    I really enjoy a Greek type salad, I use romaine (preferably, but otherwise whatever lettuce is on hand), tomatoes seasoned with garlic and pepper, feta cheese and a tablespoon of Cardini's Light Greek Vinegrette.
