my favorite is the chopped chicken salad served at Tucci Benucch - if I am able to duplicate completely I will send the recipe.
But my favorite at home recipe is:
1 head Nappa/Chinese cabbage, slawed
1/2 cup Red onion, diced
1/2 cup sunflower seeds
1 pkg almonds, slivered
2 pkgs Roman noodles, Chinese flavor, crushed
Place on jelly roll pan and bake until lightly browned in a 400 degree oven.
3/4 cup salad oil
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup vinegar
2 TBSPS soy sauce
Mix the sugar, vinegar, oil, and soy sauce until well blended.
Just before serving; mix the three separate mixtures together.
Makes 4 dinner sized servings.
Hope you enjoy. All of the ingredients can easily be adjusted. I have a friend who even used a sugar substitute and she enjoyed this salad.
Welcome!
I like to make a tomato, cucumber Greek style salad.
THAT's a SALAD!!!!!!
Add some couscous to your salad!!
One of my favorites is couscous, corn kernels, tomato, cucumber, a bit of lemon juice, drizzle of oil (veg or olive), avocado and anything else that you like!
Very light and yummy!
I'm not much for putting (sweet) fruits into my salads..they belong in a separate 'salad'. But that's just me. :) I do love putting jalopeños in my salad at times and pesto makes a great salad dressing. Sun flower seeds are yummy too.
A friend makes a very fresh Summer Salad:
lettuce, fresh basil, tomato, green onions, olive oil, corn, freshly ground pepper, salt, a bit of vinegar.
Eat at once, this doesn't store well.
Curious Chef
I'd have no problem eating that one immediately,
I eat large amount of salad and I use Iceberg lettuce cause right now it has the best flavor and yes it do have a flavor.
I don't have a favorite salad but I don't like my salad to be ice cold
My absolute favorite salad is the lettuce/cauliflower/sweet mayo/bacon layer salad. However, I tried this new one the other day and it was delicious.
Napa Salad
1 head napa Cabbage
2 bunches green onions
2 pkg ramen noodles
2 small pkg slivered almonds
1/2 container sesame seeds
Brown broken up pieces of ramen noodles, almonds & sesame seeds in 1/2 c margarine.
Drain on paper towel.
Break up cabbage, chop onions and mix all ingredients together with dressing.
Dressing:
3/4 c oil
1/2 c vinegar
3 T soy sauce
1/2 c sugar
Mix well and boil for 1 minute.
Pour over salad right before serving.
Note: Leftovers will be wilted. I just add fresh salad or spinach leaves and mix in with the leftovers to pep it back up the next day.
This one is my all time favourite! Okay, its not that healthy, with all the dressing, but it tastes good!!
