Green Salad with Cranberry Vinaigrette
Green salad that is especially pretty to serve during the Christmas holidays.
Apple-Cranberry Salad
Great salad you can serve on the side of a main dish or add roasted chicken and have as a meal! Chopped Belgian endive and radicchio can be substituted for the baby greens if you prefer a more exotic twist on salad recipes.

Cherry Chicken Salad
After dining at a cafe in Michigan about 10 years ago, I tried duplicating this scrumptious twist on Chicken Salad at home. The cherries can be ordered on-line these days, which makes it much easier for those of us living where cherries are not readily available. Regular milk can be substituted for buttermilk, if necessary.
Stacked Tomato and Burrata Salad
Comparing mozzarella and burrata is a little unfair, as burrata is significantly richer and creamier. It's not like comparing apples and oranges; it's more like apples and supermodels. In fact, burrata means 'buttered,' which is really all you need to know.

Dandelion Salad
This is a very good use of all those annoying dandelions growing in your yard. Just so long as you don't have a dog! Top with your favorite dressing. I prefer hot bacon dressing!
Pear and Pomegranate Salad
A fall and winter favorite--I am always eager for pomegranates to come in season so I can make this again. I make my own pomegranate juice by pressing the seeds against a metal sieve.
Red Quinoa and Avocado Salad
A tasty combination of quinoa, avocado, cumin, and lime juice with fresh veggies for a delicious meal!
Mediterranean Bean Salad
This is an easy, healthy salad that is a great side dish to BBQ chicken, beef or fish! It can also be easily adapted to a Tex-Mex style by changing the lemon to lime, parsley to cilantro and adding ground cumin and/or chili powder! Be sure to add the lemon zest (or lime zest) as this really adds a ZING to the salad!
Simple Caprese Salad
Traditional appetizer, but also makes a great main dish on a hot summer day. Feel free to add cooked eggplant and/or zucchini slices to this dish to make it heartier.
Gourmet Tuna Salad
The combination of green olives, almonds and capers in addition to the usual ingredients in tuna salad makes this recipe exceptionally good.
Green Apple Salad With Blueberries, Feta, And Walnuts
This salad is easy, delicious, and always a hit!
Salad with Artichokes
This was given to me by a friend, who got it from a little pasta house restaurant in her hometown. It calls for mixed greens, red onion and artichokes with a vinegar and oil dressing.
Spinach, Pear and Feta Salad
I invented this recipe the year our pear tree had too many pears. I serve it on very special occasions but can be made for everyday meals too.
Roasted Tomato Caprese Salad
A new spin on the typical Caprese salad!
Authentic Lebanese Fattoush
Fattoush is a Lebanese salad, good for hot weather. This recipe uses two unusual ingredients: sumac and purslane. Sumac, usually sold ground, is ground red berries and used in Middle Eastern, particularly Lebanese, cooking. Purslane is succulent with a lemony flavor, and makes a nice salad green. I find them at farmer's markets.
Thai Noodle Salad
Here is a quick recipe for a salad with an Asian flair that is elegant and good enough for the fanciest party. It's not only a healthy alternative, but tastes fantastic.
Tex-Mex Quinoa Salad
This versatile salad can be served warm in a tortilla, or as a filling for tacos and burritos.
Roasted Corn and Heirloom Tomato Salad
Colorful and refreshing salad using flavorful summer vegetables. The grilled vegetables and crisp tastes complement many grilled meats. You can substitute cherry tomatoes for the baby heirloom tomatoes.
Roasted Tomato Salad
Start any special meal with this warm salad.
Shrimp Couscous Salad
For a beautiful, flavorful cold salad and a wonderful variation from the standards, try this easy and delicious couscous. Shrimp and tomatoes are tossed with couscous and feta cheese, then dressed in a garlic vinaigrette. Always a hit, and never goes to waste.
Greek Pasta Salad with Roasted Vegetables and Feta
This salad is wonderful served warm or at room temperature with some French bread and a green salad.
Potato Arugula Salad
A different and yummy potato salad; it uses no mayonnaise. This is a nice alternative to use arugula, rather than just adding it to a green salad.
