I prefer to eat real food. Sometimes a side salad is nice...If it has meat on it or something.

Made a really good, weird salad once.

Organic salad green mix
Muesli cereal
Chopped kiwi
Chopped apple
Freshly squeezed grapefruit
Don't remember if there was a dressing or not.

The key to a good salad is how well you toss it!
an untossed salad is just weak

muesli cereal? what is that?

try spinach leaves
feta cheese
your preferred vinaigrette dressing
sliced strawberries
and sliced almonds

simple and delicious. you can also squeeze a little lime

i'm actually a pantry chef at a nice place in boise.  the newest salad we've been doing is a wedge salad with an iceberg head cut in half blue cheese dressing drizzled over the top, tomatoes, blue cheese crumbles, spiced-candied walnuts, toasted almonds, and top it off with some hot bacon lardoons.  anything blue cheese + bacon will sell.  im a fan of a traditional chicken ceasar though.

Yessir, I know what you're saying. I'm not saying that I don't like salad, because they are really healthy and can sometimes be really good. But I just prefer other foods.

this is true. if i'm only making a single portion salad i layer the ingredients or i put it in a bag and shake it all up.

where do you work? i live in boise..

caesar salads are pretty bomb, but only if the dressing is just right. i got a caesar salad from McDs once and the dressing was disgusting.. I can't find any good store-bought caesar dressing, it has to be home-made or w/ a recipe from a restaurant

Its oats, nuts and raisins.

I'm a vegetarian, so I like combining my greens.

steak is the best food in my opinion, with a nice au jus dipping sauce, some garlic mashed taters or potatoes au gratin and a nice warm roll and a yummy side salad.

that's my comfort food right thurr

Pittsburgh Steak Salads are the shit. It's about the only kind of rabbit food that I thoroughly enjoy. I mean, who doesn't like a salad loaded with a pound of steak and french fries?

grilled chicken, cilantro, corn, black beans, lettuce, tomato and cheese makes for a super good tortilla roll up type deal.

Yes.

There is a woman at my mom's work who complains that she eats a "salad" everyday, but isnt losing weight. The salad consists of half a head of iceberg, a tomato, 3tbspns of Mayo, Caesar dressing, cheese, bacon and chicken. probably >30g of fat in there

I don't see why some people are under the impression that salads loaded with unhealthy shit are still healthier because just of the name "salad"...Take the salads are any fast food restaurant. They usually have more calories and fat than a chicken or fish sandwhich and yes fast food may not be the best argument but people can justify eating them just because they are called salads and are "fresh and healthy".

My opinion I don't eat salad at all and really don't enjoy the taste and it is pointless. I will enjoy my apple.

spinach, candied walnuts, feta, and raspberry vinaigrette.


also, sprinkling grape nut cereal is always good on a salad.

dank/daNGk/
Adjective: Disagreeably damp, musty, and typically cold.
dank
Also an expression requently used by stoners and hippies for something of high quality.

but yes, salads rock. my favorite salad is at irish embassy, cobb salad, greens, boiled eggs, bacon bits, grilled chicken, avocado

well kinda yes, because the whole thread you were implying that salads both nutritious and delicious.

but i'll have a salad from time to time. not the packaged bullshit or salad from a restaurant(besides olive garden), it has to be made by me to insure the quality of its ingredients.

so you're going to trust a chain restaurant whom deliberately downs quality to make a larger profit over a privately owned establishment?  weird.

because i've worked in a number of those privately owned establishments in the last 5 years, yes i am.
everyone talks so much shit about chain restaurants and fast food joints but to be quite honest if you do that you know nothing. all of those places are held to a much higher standard than your typical "mom and pops" diner.

your own cooking>$50+ a meal catering food>classy restaurant>chain fastfood>privately owned restaurant

I as well love salads. I usually put a ton of cheese, a whole smorgasboard of veggies, croutons are a must, and grilled chicken is my personal favorite meat on it. And to top it all off bacon makes everything better.
