Ooooh that sounds very yummy!!! I was thinking blue cheese had to be in there somewhere tooOriginally Posted by clixpix
Mmmm...something with bleu cheese I think!There's a salad that I love that has lettuce(or spinach), bleu cheese, fried, crumbled prosciutto, red onions, greek olives, and a vinaigrette....it's sooo yummy!
That's a great idea!Originally Posted by Yosemite
When I have company for dinner, I just put the lettuce(s) in a bowl and have all the other ingredients (tomatoes, cucumber, peppers, radishes, grated cheese, craisins, several kinds of toasted nuts like slivered almonds, pine nuts, pumpkin seeds, green onions, etc.) in small dishes around it so that everyone can add what they like to their own salad, sort of "make your own". Also have a choice of dressings, i.e., home made and several store bought since some folks don't appreciate a quality home made dressing.
Yep, it's an excellent approach -- everyone gets their own "faves"Originally Posted by Yosemite

That sounds sooo good!Originally Posted by sarahp
Thanks for the idea!
I found this cranberry spinach salad that might be nice. http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Jamies-...ad/Detail.aspx
I do like a nice, simple salad though.
That is a great idea! Since there will just be 4 of us this time around I think I'll just make one, but we're having a housewarming party soon, and I think I'll do that for the salad - I have the perfect little containers for it as well.Originally Posted by Yosemite
