I hate people that try to turn everything into a casserole that shouldn't be a casserole.  When i ask for mac and cheese give me mac and cheese.  When I ask for salad give me salad.  Stop dumping all kinds of things into it and then telling everyone.  Its like when vegans tell other people they are vegan.

Olives of any type, cheese of any type, leftover meat from dinner of any type.  I love homemade croutons but... I try to eat lowish carbs, and if we have homemade bread I prefer it with either eggs in the morning or a soup or sauce in the evening, so I don’t generally do them.

Dressing is generally oil and vinegar or blue cheese (skip the above added cheese).  We got some rosemary-infused olive oil as a gift recently which is really good — we’ve got 3 large rosemary bushes in our yard and we plan to try the infusion ourselves.  :cheers: 

ETA:  The above is for a salad intended to be a meal, not a side.  For a side I’d skip the meat and often the cheese, unless we have some gorgonzola or feta already crumbled.

There are as many delicious salads as there are breakfast cereals.   
 

The combinations are endless.

Yesterday I had a simple Asian type salad. 
Iceberg, cucumbers, mandarin oranges and a ginger dressing.  
 

Today I had a tomato and onion salad with balsamic, olive oil and blue cheese crumbles.

Nine?  Store bought dressings tend to be full of sugar, especially the “lite” ones.

Use to make a salad dressing with Braggs Acv & Olive Oil and a few spices. When I eat salads I'm usually eating healthy.

Lettuce, cucumbers, tomatoes, croutons and a little cheese. It's a salad, not a 5-course meal

 

Either French or Honey Mustard dressing. Ken's fat-free Raspberry Vinigarette dressing is focking delicious but it's hard to find around here.

I take it you're not a fan of "The Big Salad" then?
