Casear Brussels Sprout Salad

Mixing up a basic salad to keep my dinner time fresh and interesting! Sliced Brussels sprouts Shaved Parmesan Prosciutto or Bacon, crumbled Chicken breast, sliced Caesar Dressing- 2 parts store bought Caesar Dressing 1 part fresh lemon juice 1 part EVOO S&P ETC. I never make Caesar dressing, so I find adding some lemon juice and olive oil make it taste homemade and less bottled. This works for other store bought dressings as well. Adding some vinegar or citrus and oil to dressings can make it taste fresher. Torn croutons would be fantastic on this too.

Stacked Cobb Salad

The other day I was eating string cheese and wheat thins for lunch with my kids when my husband sent over a picture of the most beautiful stacked salad he was having at lunch in Minneapolis. Today, I grabbed some ingredients from the salad bar at my local grocery store, turned on Giada while the girls were napping, and ate like a Queen! Having a food stacker is helpful for this but not necessary. (A food stacker looks like a giant round cookie cutter and can be found at any cooking store.) A measuring cup, cookie cutter, or can might work. I decided to stack a Cobb salad but feel free to use any ingredients you like! I shredded iceberg lettuce and added a little dressing to it. Chopped tomatoes Chopped hard boil eggs Diced bacon Blue cheese Sliced purple onion Avocado Lump crab meat Arugula micro greens Add each ingredient on top of each other and press down firmly. Hold down ingredients and slowly pull up stacker. I whipped up a dressing of lemon juice, EVOO, chopped garlic, and…

Red Wine Vinaigrette

This homemade vinaigrette is a fridge staple at my house and I haven’t found a salad it does not taste good with. I get so spoiled with homemade dressings, I can’t stomach bottled dressings anymore. 1 C Canola or Grapeseed Oil 1/2 C Red Wine vinegar (I do more like 3/4 C) S&P 1/6 C sugar ( you can also use honey ) 1/3 C finely chopped purple onion Shake and refrigerate! You can double or triple this amount as well.

Babe’s Salad Dressing

Pure Texas last night and oh my gosh! Loved the Fried chicken, corn, and biscuits but my takeaway was the salad dressing. It was a very simple salad which made the dressing really stand out. 2 TBS sugar 1 tsp salt 1/4 tsp fresh ground pepper 1/4 c apple cider vinegar 2 Tbs canola oil (or Grape Seed Oil) 1 head Iceberg lettuce Combine all ingredients in a jar and shake. Refrigerate. Tear iceberg lettuce in pieces and refrigerate. Dress salad and top with a lot of cracked black pepper. ETC. Another key is serving the salad on a cold bowl or plate.

Hummus Salad dressing

My girlfriend had me over for lunch the other day and made a salad with the most delicious dressing! She is the queen of salads and mine never taste as good. I tripled the dressing recipe so I’d have it for the next couple of weeks. And really, I’d eat it by the spoonful! 1/3 cup sugar 2 tbsp sesame seeds 1 tbsp poppy seed 1 1/2 tsp minced onion (I added a lot more and used purple onion) 1/4 tsp Worcestershire 1/4 teaspoon paprika 1/2 c veg oil 1/4 c apple cider vinegar (I used red wine and I think that’s fine too) Salad- Butter lettuce and Spinach Grilled chicken from last night Strawberries blueberries blood orange segments orange segments Avocado Sliced almonds
