   I love simple ceasar salads, and they are ridiculously easy to make.

   Lettuce – you can even buy the ready packs that have it already washed and cut for you.
   Carrots
   Parmesan Cheese
   Croutons – the ceasar kind
   Ceasar dressing

   Super easy and really yummy!

   Try this: romaine lettuce, tomato, avocados, yellow pepper, kalamata olives, red onion, feta cheese, sea salt, and pepper. Yummy.

   I use what ever I have at hand and make roll-ups.

   Roll-ups:- Lettuce
   (by Dune 18/4/11)
   1 leaf of crispy lettuce, Iceberg
   Chopped eggs
   Tomato wedges, seedless
   Cucumber chunks, seedless
   Celery, sliced
   White pickled onions, finely sliced
   Grated cheese
   Grated carrot
   Cold meat, sliced, shredded, cut into chunks
   a) Season ingredients to taste
   b) Assemble lettuce cups with some of every thing and fold into a pocket or roll.
   c) Secure with a tooth-pick or put between two slices of thick buttered bread, hamburger bun or a split hotdog roll.
   (mayonnaise optional)

   Balsamic Pea Salad

   I quickly make this the night before I need it as it tastes much better if it sits overnight. My daughter & her friend will not eat peas, but they love this salad.

   1 (16 ounce) package frozen green peas
   1/2 cup chopped almonds
   1/2 cup chopped green onions
   1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
   3/4 cup mayonnaise
   2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
   black pepper to taste

   Place peas in a colander, & run warm water over them until they are thawed. Place in a large bowl.

   Toast almonds in a skillet over medium heat. Then combine with peas.

   Stir in onions, feta cheese, & mayonnaise. Mix in balsamic vinegar, & season with pepper. Cover, & refrigerator.

   Peace.

   I’m in love with this super amazing Greek style shrimp salad! A friend made it for me some time ago.
   The base of the salad is romaine lettuce, cherry tomatoes, red onion, and cucumber. Top this with kalamata olives, jarred capers, chopped artichokes, and steamed shrimp, then a healthy helping of chunked feta cheese.

   The dressing is 1/4 cup olive oil combined with 1/2 cup of lemon juice, a tsp of honey, salt and pepper.

   I only use red leaf lettuce, (romaine is too tough, iceberg is too watery), sliced cucumbers, grape tomatoes, and thinly sliced radishes. As add-ins I will shave a fennel bulb, thinly sliced red onion, or dice a bartlett or comice pear, diced asian pear is also nice, some pomegranate seeds are good too. I only would use crumbled feta or blue cheese in a salad if I chose to do so. No croutons, they get soggy. Good extra virgin olive oil and balsamic vinegar to dress the salad.
