i always put little gem lettuce, sliced cucumber, red or orange or yellow pepper sliced up, and black grapes halved, into a big bowl. we then all add our own croutons or salad bits when it's on our plate. i was just wondering what everyone else puts in their salad? i really hate boring salads.
I have lots of stuff in mine. Small bag of salad leaves with, radishes, cucumber, tomato, spring onion, olives, capers, tuna. I usually do a lemon and olive oil dressing but I've recently discovered low fat caeser dressing.
little gem lettuce
red & yellow peppers
cucumber
tomato
celery
spring onions
button mushrooms (sliced)
chick peas (cooked) or some other pulse for protein
bean or alfalfa sprouts (depending on what I've grown)
cooked vegetables (eg okra, sweetcorn, peas, beetroot)
I have separate dishes for potato salad (new potatoes, mayo, spring onions and mayo) and tabouleh (bulgar wheat, parsley, onion, french dressing).
What about apple, dates and cheese all cut up small (if you buy the ready chopped dates with sugar on it is even nicer). Need to eat it quickly before the apples go brown though. Yummy!!
