My new oven (stove) won't arrive until Thursday, so I'm having salad for supper tonight: I like a bed of dark green baby spinach leaves and torn romain leaves; followed by a generous sprinkling of crumbled goat cheese (feta), sugar snap peas, dried cranberries, a hand full of blue berries, and I had some pre-cooked hard-boiled eggs in the refridgerator, so I chopped an egg up to put on the salad, too. I like Ken's Steakhouse Balsamic Dressing, so I'm using that as my salad dressing, tonight.

I also had a few late season cucumbers; so I made a coconut-shrimp salad to fill hollowed out, split in two cucumbers, as an extra side for my supper salad.

I'm also having one slice of, toasted and buttered, sour-dough bread.

Mmmmm salad

For the base: Leafy greens: mesclun mix/spring greens...spinach! Anything but iceberg...no nutrients....at all

Added in: everything and anything that won't run away...I especially love:
Fresh peas, fresh mushrooms, garbanzo beans, sunflower seeds, hot peppers, FRESH GOOD olives, particularly the ones with the pit in them (*kalamata mmm),
I love any veggie except broccoli...the little thingies get stuck in my throat (or I IMAGINE they will)

And on top: I'm partial to home made type pumpernickel croutons (like Ruby Tuesday has) and a light, subtle but tasty dressing...I like Newman's Own dressings...there's one with ginger that will make your mouth sing. And I love a nice herby (dilly) cucumber dressing...like tzatziki...embellished...or sun dried tomato dressing...there's also an Italian dressing at Whole Foods (their brand) that I find to be divinity...I marinate just cukes and tomatoes in it and have it for a snack/lunch/dinner

My newly-discovered favorite salad topping: Green peas!

Green peas are delicious!

Also goat cheese, baby corn, candied walnuts, tomatoes and for the salad itself – boston lettuce.

Medusa.....I love to put red kidney beans,black beans, garbanzos, black eyed peas, green peas , and edamame on my salads. Have you tried any of those....all are great source of fiber and some protein, too! I have always loved green peas!

I buy spring mix and add:

Cucumber
Radishes
Shredded cheddar or parm (whichever i have)
Crimini mushrooms (baby portabellos)
Sometimes garbonzo beans, although better with iceberg lettuce
Fresh dressing with evoo and whatever catches my fancy

depends on the day. Most often I don't have dressing on my salads. For me I enjoy the flavor of the veggies as the stand on their own.

I like most types of salads. Sometimes I'll do a mixed greens with fruit and nuts or seeds with a little bit of feta and other times I enjoy having a variety of veggies and shredded colby cheese on the salad....it all depends on whats available in the house. I do prefer a spinach mix of greens more than a iceberg lettuce mix. Every once in a while I even throw on some beans (kidney, black bean, pinto).

I don't have a preference I guess...I merely go by what I have and what mood strikes me.
