Chicken and Spring Mix Salad with Spicy Pineapple Dressing by jason kim

We have been meaning to do something light and healthy for a while now after our consecutive (more like week long) meat-eating spree, so we wanted to do some sort of salad that could be filling as well as healthy for you. Lucky for us, we found a great recipe in this month's issue of Cooking Light that not only provided something…

Gingered Beet and Berry Salad by Linda Simon

This is intense. Intense flavor- sweet and spicy. A cool salad with a hit of hot ginger. Intense color- red beets and red raspberries. Intense texture- crunchy grated raw roots. Garden fresh.

Got Carrot Salad? Got 20 Minutes? by kathy gori

I love stuff that's fast and easy. These are the recipes that are lifesavers especially when "stuff" happens, for lack of a better word. Dishes that are versatile, and inexpensive to prepare and can be prepared ahead of time are even better. I was looking for that sort of thing this week, after the whole Film Festival craziness and…

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…

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…
