When I was growing up I remember having salad sandwiches, white crusty buttered bread, lettuce, sliced tomatoes, cucumber, Spanish onion and salad cream, quite retro now ! I still love salad cream.
|
Lately, my salads have included, for the most part, the following: romaine (from CA growers ONLY!), baby cukes, salad topping bits, bacon bits, shredded carrots, a super tiny diced mix of 8 veggies that I got premade at my grocery store (carrot, celery, broccoli, green cabbage, green pepper, jicama, purple cabbage and radish), mushrooms, parmesan croutons and whatever dressing I feel like that day.

From Wiki: Salad cream is a creamy, pale yellow condiment based on an emulsion of about 25–50 percent oil in water, emulsified by egg yolk and acidulated by spirit vinegar. It may include other ingredients such as sugar, mustard, salt, thickener, spices, flavouring and colouring. Mayonnaise, *snip* It is a stable emulsion of oil, egg yolk, and acid, either vinegar or lemon juice |

I recently began to have a green lettuce salad for breakfast. I use a few leaves of romaine lettuce (chopped up by hand), then top it with baby arugula, shaved slices of sweet onion, one clove of garlic minced, sweet peas, and nasturtium flowers. I make an evoo dressing with freshly squeezed juice from one clementine or small tangerine: juice + 3 tsp of evoo) to dress the salad. I top it with a sprinkle of sesame seeds and a few pine nuts. On the side of the salad I make a 3 egg scramble with melted provolone on top.
It’s a yummy alternative for breakfast, plus I feel all kinds of energy to boost my day. Link to salad recipe idea: https://theviewfromgreatisland.com/s...lowers-recipe/ https://theviewfromgreatisland.com/w...-11-2017-3.jpg |
Well,
Earlier this week I baked a small cordon blue chicken breast and sliced it and put it on top of my salad that night. Mediterranean salad dressing. Very good! Last night I baked two chicken green chili enchiladas. I put one on top of my salad with more cheese, onions, cilantro, sour cream and more green chili. Oh my, what a great idea. It was a better choice than beans! I'm going to do a repeat tonight! |
a clove of garlic to rub around the bowl
Romaine lettuce and baby spinach grape tomatoes or summer home grown tomatoes Vidalia onions poached chicken carrots cucumbers pineapple or raisins or apple or mandarin oranges or strawberries sunflower seeds Asian fried noodles or croutons whatever fruity-vinegary dressing I have on hand |
