I'm running out of ideas for what to put on salads to keep them interesting.

So far I have had salad with...

Slice of ham
Salmon
Chicken escalops
Quiche
Grilled chicken breast

Some suggestions of what you like to have on your salad would be great :)

Thanks x

    Smoked salmon
    Beans. Now I'm on a white bean kick, often I add three types of beans (white, pink, black) for color and fun.
    1/4 avocado
    Shrimp
    Walnuts (very limited)
    Dried cranberries (very limited)
    Blue cheese (very limited, 1/2 ounce goes very far with flavor).
    Apples or pears

    Obviously I don't add all of these into one salad. The beans are almost always a given, the rest are sporadic and I switch it up. I also use only my own salad dressing now and I measure.

    I absolutely LOVE salad! I love salad with fresh tuna; really good. I also like a loaded veggie salad with shred, goat, or feta cheese. You may want to watch the amt of "cheese" you use, but it's awesome and dnt forget to add almonds, strawberries, and craisins...delicious!

    Oh yes, there is nothing like a fresh SPINACH SALAD --awesome!

    Mmm...I totally agree on spinach, I'd rather eat spinach than lettuce any day of the week!

    I never think to put fruit in my salads, deffinitely going to load up on the fruit next time.

    More salad ideas than you can shake a stick at! Excellent, exactly what I need!

    Thank you!! xx
