Top 10 Salad Recipe Favorites

1. Tuna Salad With Dijon Dressing

This is a nicoise-style main dish salad, and it's inspired by a salad I often have at a local restaurant. I love this salad with fresh grilled tuna, but premium packaged cooked tuna or good quality canned tuna may be used.

2. Chicken Salad With Pecans and Hard-Cooked Eggs

Dress this flavorful salad with a homemade Creole or Dijon mustard dressing or your own favorite dressing or vinaigrette.

3. Steak Salad With Creamy Green Onion Dressing

This is a wonderful salad, and easy to prepare. Delicious sirloin can be grilled, broiled, or pan seared, then slice and serve with vegetables and a tasty homemade creamy dressing.

4. Chopped Salad With Ham

This interesting and versatile salad is made with a variety of ingredients; beans, cheese, nuts, ham, tomatoes, cucumbers, and romaine lettuce are a few worth noting. Serve this hearty chopped salad on tortilla chips and dress with the homemade vinaigrette or your own favorite.

5. Grilled Chicken Salad

This composed salad is as flavorful as it is attractive. Add your own favorite ingredients to the salad, if you like. I like hard-cooked eggs with this, but it would be delicious with beans or cheese as well.

6. Steak and Pepper Salad

Another hearty salad made with beef, this one includes sweet peppers, sweet onion slices, beans, and lettuce, along with a simple warm balsamic vinegar dressing.

7. Grilled Shrimp and Mango Salad

Skewered shrimp is grilled then served with a mixture of shredded mango, green onions, lime juice, and seasonings, along with greens and hot pepper.

8. Lobster Salad

This lobster salad makes an elegant luncheon salad on lettuce leaves, or serve my favorite way, in a toasted hot dog rolls (New England style hot dog rolls if you can find them) with pickles and chips or fries on the side.

9. Shrimp Salad

This shrimp salad would be delicious on lettuce leaves for lunch, or serve it with chips for a quick summer dinner.

10. Taco Salad

This easy taco salad recipe is made with ground beef, lettuce, shredded cheese, tomatoes, ripe olives, and corn chips, along with taco sauce and other ingredients.
