I love salads, and I love making my own creations. Salad doesn't have to be boring. Don't get stuck in the mindset of lettuce, cucumbers, and tomatoes, not that there's anything wrong with that! Here are a few combinations that I like to throw together:
Just Peachy Salad: Mixed greens, sliced peaches, almonds, cucumber, avocado, balsamic vinaigrette
Mixed Berry Salad: Mixed greens, blackberries, raspberries, blueberries, avocado, walnuts, raspberry vinaigrette
Strawberry Spinach Salad: Mixed greens, strawberries, cucumbers, red onion, sliced almonds, lemon vinaigrette
Traditional Savory Salad: mixed greens, colorful sliced bell peppers, cucumbers, shredded carrots, balsamic vinaigrette
Add your own additions to any of the above or omit an ingredient that you don't like. Make it a meal by adding some chic peas, grilled chicken or fish, harboiled eggs, cheeses like feta or goat cheese or additional nuts.
