A most colorful salad dedicated to my Aussie friends by Nick Roche

OK, so tomatoes are a fruit, correct? And we all know that kiwis are a fruit as well, correct? What if the two of them met each other in a most unlikely venue, say a salad?

Garbage Salad (not really) by Amos Miller

This salad will make the meal, or be the meal. Broccoli, oranges, almonds, raisins, mushrooms, onion & bacon - and a fabulous classic sweet & tangy creamy dressing! Vegetarians can substitute bac-o-bits, or not add a bacon substitute. Throwing together bits and pieces of a variety of items has long been the basis of some great…

Cranberry Walnut Cabbage Slaw by Salad Foodie

This recipe was a top winner in Better Homes & Gardens August 1999 monthly recipe contest and I have made it ever since. It's fits well with a Thanksgiving, Christmas, holiday theme with the dried cranberries and walnuts, and the red and green color combos, but I make it year-round. I especially like the snappy dressing.

Apple Salad by Carolinaheartstrings

I love a crisp juicy apple, tart or sweet. When I made this little salad I wanted something that was easy, tasty and with ingredients that did not overpower the apple flavor. I think I found the perfect combination of flavors. Tart, sweet, and zesty! This recipe serves 4 people.

Chicken with Cantaloupe, Cucumber and Zucchini Salad by Salad Foodie

Perfect for fall garden harvests, this main dish salad is lightly dressed with lime and cilantro. It's based on a recipe from Better Homes and Gardens several years back, but I have simplified some steps and tweaked measurements a little. A pleasing and light combo of meat, fruit and vegetables. Just add crackers or a roll, and glass…

Nappa Cabbage Salad by Mary Frances Hart

This is a light salad depending how much dressing you use. It gets more like coleslaw if you use more dressing and let it sit. Salad ingredent amounts should be to your liking. I prefer a ratio of 1:3 (vinagar:Oil) but it can be more or less.To make it more of a meal add one or a combination of soy sauce roasted asparagus, blanched…

This crunchy salad has an interesting combination of flavors and is a good alternative to coleslaw.

Strawberry Spinach Salad by Amy Gibson and Janesse Baker

As promised, here is another delicious summer salad. You might be thinking strawberries in a salad? How weird is that. It is unusual but really good. I think it's the mixture of all the ingredients of this salad that make it so good. A bit of cheese, nuts and onion with a tangy but slightly sweet dressing. It all goes together to make…
