Question by hollymccartney: What would be a good salad recipe?
I’m looking for a salad recipe. Something that would go well with black bean enchiladas. I want to making something fun and unique, but nothing too crazy since I don’t know how picky everyone at this dinner party will be. So, if anyone has some interesting salads they would make…I’d love to hear them:)

  1. I don’t know if it would go with you main but my fav salad is:
    Chop half a butternut pumpkin into cubes and put in roasting pan with 1 teaspon of cumin and 1 clove of garlic.
    Roast for 30 mins then add cherry tomatoes and roast for another 15 mins.
    put pumkin and cherry tomatoes in salad bowl with baby spinach leaves and chickpeas.
    Cumble fetta over the top.
    YUM!!!

  2. How about “Fire and Ice” tomato salad? It’s light enough not to overload the enchiladas, but zippy enough to hold its own as a side:

    Fire and Ice Tomato Salad

    6 large tomatoes
    1 large green bell pepper, cut in strips
    1 red onion, sliced in rings
    3/4 cup vinegar
    1 1/2 teaspoons celery salt
    1/2 teaspoon black pepper
    1 tablespoon plus 1 tsp sugar
    1 1/2 teaspoons mustard seed
    1/8 teaspoon red pepper, (cayenne)
    1/4 cup cold water

    PREPARATION:

    Skin and quarter tomatoes. Place with green pepper and onion in a large bowl with tight-fitting lid. Place remaining ingredients in a saucepan and bring to boil. Immediately pour over vegetables.

    Chill, turning occasionally. Serve cold

  3. A simple salad would be

    Romaine and butter lettuces
    carrots finely shredded
    grape tomatoes cut in half
    green bell pepper chopped
    black olives

    Dressing very simple

    Sour cream, a touch of milk, your favorite salsa, salt and pepper to taste

    Top with tortilla strips

  4. Go to Foodnetwork.com and search Taco Salad by Paula Deen. That way you can print it out. I made it yesterday and it is very easy and good!!! Instead of dicing tomatoes I bought a can of Rotel diced tomatoes with green peppers. I used crushed Fritos in the salad (some reviewers had used Doritos) and I added Taco seasoning to the ground beef. It makes alot and is filling.

  5. tri colored pasta, cook and cool….add black and/or green olives, peperoni, cherry tomatoes, cubbed cheddar cheese and add good seasons italian dressing. i make this for all my dinner parties and everyone goes nuts for it and the ingredients are large enough for people to pick out what they don’t like!!!
