Tomato and Avocado Salad by John Spottiswood

This is a wonderful salad. Steeping the avocado in the lemon, olive oil, salt and pepper for an hour before serving is a real key to the flavor. We served this with small but flavorful tomatoes, so instead of the presentation recommended below, we just tossed everything together and served it. If I had big slices of heirloom…

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…

Waldorf Salad by K. Garner

"Spreading the dressing over the fruit mixture before it's chilled seals out air and helps keep the fruit fresh longer". Who am I to edit out the original note from the Meredith Corporation's 1989 edition of the "Better Homes and Gardens New Cookbook"? No, nay, never! I like this version because I can tell my son there's…

Four C Coleslaw by Salad Foodie

This is my version of a coleslaw I tasted many years ago at a catered event. It's close but not precisely the same. However it's a refreshing change from those familiar too-creamy coleslaws. The salad base is made up of 4 vegetables that start with the letter C, hence the recipe name. Cabbage, corn, cucumber, and cilantro team up…

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? And let's say that these silly little capers decided to butt in and mix things up. Before you knew it, there was a flavor party brewing, somebody said Happy New…

Cranberry Waldorf Salad by Debra Parsons

When growing up, my family and I used to go to a restaurant that had this on their salad bar--and for me, it was one of those "I can't stop eating it" items.

Quinoa Salmon Salad with Lemon and Dill by Linda Simon

It’s too hot to cook! Luckily, I have some leftover salmon from yesterday. What to do with it? Quinoa is quick on the stovetop, it won’t heat up the kitchen. I have lemons and celery in the fridge. Dried tomatoes in the freezer. And lots of fresh dill in the garden. White, red, black, purple, orange? I have used white and…

Napa Cabbage Slaw by Wendy Saxena-Smith

Of course this slaw would also work with green cabbage, but Napa is a nice alternative with a fabulous, light and crunchy texture.
