I am Finally Making Peace with Salads

Here are some of my favs as entres:

1. Chicken Ceasar

Romain Lettuce
Cucumber
Fresh Parmesan
Croutons
Grilled Chicken (seasoned with Garlic Salt and Lemon Pepper)
Brianna's Ceasar Dressing

Yum. Yeah. No great revelation here, but nice to mix it up.

2. Summer Salad

Spring Mix and/or Spinach
Strawberries (sliced thin)
Mandarin Oranges
Grapes (cut in half)
Red Onions (sliced thin)
Feta Cheese
Toasted Slivered Almonds
Brianna's Blush Wine Vinagrette

Love the toasted almonds! You just put them in a dry frying pan over medium heat, stirring occasionally until they are brown. You can also "candy" them by sprinkling a little sugar over the top.

3. Wonton Salad

1 Head of Lettuce (Iceberg)
Green Onions
3 Chicken Breasts (diced)
1 Package Fried Wontons
Seasame Seeds

Dressing:
1/4 c. oil
1 1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 c. rice wine (sweet - cooking)
2 T. sugar

4. The Best for Last

Romain & Spring Mix Lettuce
1/2 lb Bacon, crumbled
1/2 c. Toasted Almonds
2 c. Grated Fresh Parmesan
2 c. Grated Mozzarella
6 Chicken Breasts (grilled with garlic salt & lemon pepper - diced)

Dressing:
1/2 c. red wine vinegar
1 c sugar
1/4 c. red onion - diced
1/2 t. salt
1 t. dry mustard
Put ingredients into blender and slowly add 1 c. vegetable oil

Long Post? Well, I guess I am just making up for lost time.
