Simple salad topped with sesame Dates

Just a refreshing and wonderful snack or side dish everyone is sure to enjoy 😊

Everyone loves entertaining in the summer, but there may not always be time to prep a huge meal. Guests want to enjoy time with the host, not watch them slave in the kitchen. One of the easiest things to throw together is a great salad.I use this salad quite a bit when company drops by. The steps are easy to follow and it packs a lot of flavor. It pairs well with your summer chicken or fish dishes ... even burgers. The dressing, just three ingredients, is sweet, tangy and can be stored for a few days (just stir to refresh it). This recipe should serve 4 people comfortably.(Recipe correction: I originally stated to use globe tomatoes. These, while still tasty, will be too big for the plating of the salad. Please note the change to grape (cherry) tomatoes.)

This is a simple cool refreshingly slightly spicy slight sweet Asian shrimp salad. Either cook the shrimp yourself or buy them already cooked for a summer meal or appetizer anytime!

This is a spin on a classic Waldorf salad, but with the added protein of chicken and served over romaine to make it into a hearty lunch. I also put together a creamy poppy seed dressing for this, rather than using mayo only, which is what a traditional Waldorf salad is tossed with. I generally eat salads at work, so I usually pack my salads up in a quart sized mason jar to easily take it with me. Recipe loosely adapted from : The Domestic Geek

Spring has found us hoorayyy,,,yesterday was such a beautiful, sunny, the birds chirping, ducks were quacking..we have a small lake a few feet away from our home so we do have ducks and in each May two swans appear and stay for a couple of weeks before they move on.I had many errands to do yesterday so I was out most of the day. When I finally returned home, I didn’t have much time to cook, so I made this delicious Lentil Salad with a variety of peppers, dill , (love that dill) scallions, and fresh cherry tomatoes. Not only was this a delicious salad to eat, but it was also so delightful to look at because it’s so colorful. 🙂

Tired of eating the same old regular salads? Here's a twist on a few of the classics all combined into one!

I wanted to make a simple, but delicious salad, and I did.Adding the seasoning ingredients in the order of soy sauce, sesame oil, vinegar, allows the soy sauce to blend into the natto and maintains the flavor of the vinegar. Recipe by Akai denwa

I love making this salad for gatherings and hot summer days 😊

This is one of many versions of my pasta salad. I call this one pizza pasta, so my kids will eat it, if it has the word pizza in it my kids will eat it lol!!! This always disappears quickly , everyone loves it when I bring it to a cookout, bbq, or a family event pot luck.. I like to make this for picnics and short day trips when I take a cooler. This is definitely my go to pasta salad, and so easy and quick.

The new virtual thing going around is people making salad bars in their refrigerator. Well I rent and have an older refrigerator, and i don’t have the room but think its a great idea. Then the snackle box come out and went viral and people started to do salads bars like this as well. This is how i came about doing this. I just use what we like. My teens likes chef salads so i try to stay with them ingredients.There’s also a women known as the salad bar mom who has a restaurant style salad bar in her house for her family of 11 , what is a great idea . so for me this style set up with my snackle boxes will have to do forMy family of 3 for now until i can afford a commercial prep station or my family gets bigger lol 😂My teens love this they can pick whatever just like at a restaurant, they say they feel fancy and its just like a restaurant just a mini salad bar.Since 2020 most of the salad bars and buffets are gone so this is a nice option. I noticed after I started doing this i dont miss them over price salad bars/ buffets and my family is eating more salads/ veggies if i have it like this easy and assessable.So far i have done this 3 times now and about on the 3rd day i have to restock it just depends on how many getting out of it and how often, i just do this for lunch time with 2 teens and one adult getting a salad so it does last.

I have seen a lot of different Italian pasta salads, so I decided to try and do one but I couldn't find the one that I wanted to try, so I ended up just buying stuff that I wanted in it. Nobody in my household would try it besides myself and my youngest daughter. She loved this so much that she kept asking for more. The only thing that she picked out of it was the tomatoes. I will definitely do this again, but I think that I might make a few changes just to make it different. The ham for instance, didn't really go with because I had gotten honey ham. I think regular ham would be better.

I thought that tuna, sesame and shiso leaves should go together well, and tried it out.A whole bag of mizuna greens may to be too much, so please adjust the amount.I used precut tuna this time, but you can use a block or offcuts instead. For 2 to 3 servings. Recipe by Koyukki-

Tofu goes well with a creamy sesame seed dressing, so I created this salad.If you don't have mizuna on hand, feel free to use lettuce or onions. Enjoy the combination of tofu, fresh greens, and sesame seed dressing. Recipe by FarmersK

we had this salad with our stromboli. :-)

Everyone wanted a different salad for a lunch so I took components from potato salad and egg and topped it with a tossed green salad garnished with crispy bacon, than for the green salad part everyone could canpick their own favorite dressing!

This is a cold salad we have had at family gatherings for a while now. People seem to love it and it is super simple.

This is the bread salad bowl I often ate a while back, when I wasn't a seafood-only vegetarian!! I thought I wanted to eat it again, so I made this vegetarian version.This is a vegan recipe, but if you're okay with eggs you can use regular mayonnaise. Use your choice of lettuce and other vegetables in whatever amounts you like. Top with your choice of dressing. I think this goes well with sesame seed dressing and Caesar. Recipe by suziehippy

Spring onions are juicy and mild, making them easy to eat without soaking. The dressing is made using organic walnut sauce.Origin of this recipeThere weren't many recipes using store-bought organic walnut sauce, so I created this one.

I love cucumber salad but the full fat mayo version has too many calories. So I've created one that uses lighter ingredients but the taste isn't compromised. This is my "go to" side dish for so many meals now made with less guilt!

I heard about this recipe from a place called the cowboy ciao in AZ and put a slight spin on it. This salad takes planing and effort but it will blow your mind with the variance of flavors and textures.

This is my very own concoction. I had some fresh sweet corn in the refrigerator that I wanted to use and was in the mood for salad, so I combined some ingredients I had on hand and this is the end result. I hope you enjoy it!

This is a salad i made with leftover chicken breast. Yummy and Healthy 😊

This salad combines some of my favorite fruits and flavors. The ingredients incorporate nicely and would be a wonderful addition to grilled fish or chicken.

My son and I are HUGE Big Mac fans but I always feel "the guilts" after eating one. This salad has ALL the flavor of a fattening Big Mac with half the fat and calories!!

I see to it that this salad is present in our table.. the taste of pomegranate syrup gives a twist in this recipe... can add more veggies of desire..

My daughter likes Sweet Potato fry with paprika,My hubby likes pan fried Halloumi & I simply love Avacado. So one day I combined all these to make a Salad and this turned out to be our Family Salad.We called it as "ASH" Salad as it contains what we like the most as well as the name holds the first letters of our names(Asim,Shebin &Shaista)
