Summer is fast approaching here in the northern hemisphere, so naturally a salad thread is in order.
What are your fave salad combos?
I love baby spinach- not just for the health benefits, but because I can do so much more with it besides just a salad. I buy a big bag every week and pretty much consume it by myself.
I like throwing on some avocado, onion, and maybe some black beans and corn and doing like a tex-mexy type salad.. With a lime/jalepeno/garlic/evoo vinaigrette. I might crumble on some shredded cheddar or queso fresco. And sometimes I'll add chopped boiled egg or a couple strips of leftover grilled chicken. :3
I also do just chickpeas, goat's cheese and red onion sometimes with lemon juice and evoo
And chopped strawberry, blueberries, sunflower seeds, and a balsamic vinegar reduction mixed with evoo ... Or red wine/evoo combo!
I never buy bottled dressings as I'd much prefer to make my own like what I listed up there. Saves mucho calories and tastes way better!
