Moroccan Beet Salad by John Spottiswood

This is a classic beet salad. If you like beets, you're going to really enjoy this. My personal preference is to boil the beets as little as possible That way they still have a crunch to them but aren't as hard as raw beets. I think raw beets are perfectly delicious, and I don't like them soft, so I boil them just enough to soften…

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…

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…

Panzanella (Tuscan Bread Salad) by Frank Fariello

Panzanella, a Tuscan bread salad, is a great way to use old bread and avoid cooking in hot weather at the same time. And it is so simple to make, too.

Romaine Salad with Lemon-Parmesan Dressing by Nancy Miyasaki

A simple but fantastic salad with a very nice dressing. Oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes add depth and flavor to this salad. We all really enjoyed this. Another amazing dish from my good friend Marci Chan!

Moroccan Preserved Lemons by Amos Miller

Moroccan preserved lemons are an absolute necessity to complete dishes from salads to tagines (stews). Extremely easy to make, adding a unique flavor and texture to the dish, I have kept preserved lemons for as long as a year in the 'fridge without any problem. After all, you're basically talking about lemon juice and salt. But you…

Spinach Salad with Avocado and Toasted Almonds by John Spottiswood

Creamy, crunchy, spicy and sweet, this salad covers all the flavor bases and provides a wonderful base for the linked Ginger Sesame Salmon recipe. It's beautiful too.

Salad with pears with cheese sauce by Nollian

Creamy Vegan Potato Salad by The Blender Girl

I recently shared this potato salad with my friends Kris, Michelle, Emily, Nicole, and my father-in-law, Bob; and the reaction was unanimous–“Oh Wow! I could eat this salad every day. This is a keeper. You need to put this on your site!” At the risk of appearing unashamedly self-congratulatory, I have to agree with my discerning…

Special Brocoli Salad by Micheline

A very tasty brocoli salad (sweet, sour, salty all in 1) .

Warm Brussles Sprouts Salad with Almonds and Parmesan by Nancy Miyasaki

I adapted this from a Oprah recipe. She makes the salad with raw brussel sprouts. I couldn't quite trust that, so I blanched them lightly before slicing. This produced a delcious and slightly warm salad. I should have tried some raw and some cooked to see which method is best. Maybe one of you can do that and let us know?

Grilled Tuna Steaks over Arugula Salad by John Spottiswood

I adapted this recipe from one in Cook's Illustrated and served it during a trip to San Luis Obispo with friends. The vinaigrette was fantastic and the technique for marinating the fennel bulb slices in the vinaigrette to soften it is definitely a keeper. You could try this with just about any fish with good results I think. I…

Mock «puntarelle» alla romana by Frank Fariello

One of the dishes I miss most from my Roman days is the winter salad known as le puntarelle. Puntarelle are a kind of chicory native to the countryside around Rome. In fact, the vegetable is sometimes called "Roman chicory" in English. The shoots are rather thick but tender, white at the base and green at their tips. The taste is…

Sweet basil tomato salad by Lynn Yamamoto

I adapted this recipe from a tomato salad my mom's friend, Michi, made us years ago. She marinates the tomatoes in the dressing. We use this as salad dressing. You need to use a pretty sturdy lettuce such as Romaine--it's a substantial dressing. It's got wonderful flavor either way you use it.
