What do you like on your salad?

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.

Currently we are doing an iceburg/romaine mix ($1 difference between and we eat a lot daily) but we are going to start incorporating baby spinach as well.

Carrots, sunflower seeds, hard boiled eggs, corn and tortilla strips. Sometimes edamame, but I normally keep that around to snack on it. Topped with ranch, the occasional balsamic if I find a good one that I like.

homemade..Thousand Island, Chinese Sesame Dressing or Vinaigrettes mostly..

Star, I agree. Plain salad mixes bore me. Have you seen the super food mix of salad? It has kale, spinach. Shaved brussels sprouts, shaved cabbage in it plus a packet of almond slivers, dried cranberries., and walnuts in it. It is really good, lots of crunch in it also. I like the spicy asian mix and alter it with super foods one!
