Please select all that apply:
Beetroot spring onion grated carrot coleslaw
We generally have a mixture of salad type of ‘ingredients.’ This includes lettuce, tomatoes, spring onions, beetroot, cucumber. A bit boring I know but I guess all those could go into a salad bowl and mixed around with a salad dressing.
This sounds good and helps add to a big salad idea. It's not boring at all, Biomet . Sometimes, I use leftover vegetables and other items to mix into salads, too.
We have these too, and radishes, really pleased the other day as everything apart from the beetroot ( which is not ready yet) was from the garden. I felt proud of myself.
Cucumber and tomato salad with crisp lettuce, thinly sliced red onion, a few croutons and home made dressing (standard 2 - 1 oil and vinegar, a drizzle of balsamic and Splenda granules to counteract the sharpness).
Same but with, avocado, any kind of berries, mixed seeds, full fat Greek yogurt,feta cheese, chia seed, olives, olive oil, vinegar & a little saltA little crispy bacon chopped up or smoked mackerel ect
That sounds like a filling and delicious meal. I sometimes add fresh chopped chilli to give it a kick plus cashew nuts for crunch. Then either jacket potato or a portion of protein like chicken or tuna. I do like to add a lot of dressing.
I don't have salads as a rule, but include half an avocado, pepper, cucumber and a whole lot of lettuce in my lunchtime feta cheese and kefir sandwich (between wholemeal low sugar bread). With so much salad it can occasionally be embarrassing to eat in public!
I really dont much like salad at all,I eat tomatoes and occasionally cucumber and coleslaw.
We enjoy salmon prawns feta roast turkey fillet steak carbs could be pasta jacket potatoes jersey potatoes
Plus watercress, onion, carrot, coleslaw, boiled egg and cheese shavings.
I also add chopped apple, celery and walnuts to make a sort of Waldorf salad, I use either a mixture of yogurt and creme fraiche or lightest of light mayonnaise. Balsamic vinegar and virgin olive oil makes a wonderful dressing.

Sounds good. What do you have with the Ceasar salad, Hidden ?
Avocado, beetroot and three bean salad with mixed leaves (watercress, spinach and rocket), I like to have smoked mackerel with salad too.
I like a plate of fruit - bananas, grapes, apples, pineapple, and melons. And add some walnuts!
My favourite salad mix is either apple, red onion, red cabbage, lettuce, cucumber and tomatoes with home made mustard vinaigrette or coleslaw made with apple, onion, white cabbage, red peppers, carrots and mayonnaise.
This sounds like a great salad. How many servings does the recipe serve? 😀👍
It’s highly variable depending on how hungry me and my hubby are that day and how much salad veg I’ve picked from my growing area and greenhouse. At the moment my Japanese cucumbers are nearly ready to pick and I’m looking forward to some simple Greek style salads made with the super crunchy cucumbers.
Sweetcorn with mixed sliced peepers & red onion. Add tuna & mayo to taste.

I enjoy having a salad either as a side dish or as the main part of a meal each night, if possible. 😀👍
We have salad leaves,avocado,mixed beans,beetroot cooked with herbs.Peppers I cook in oven with spices and herbs try to vary salads,
My favorite type of salad is tomato and cucumber plus I like creating my own as I like to add in spring onions , colorful peppers ( red, green and yellow), pomegranate seeds and pineapple chunks with beetroot and sometimes an apple. Most important you have to have a hard boiled egg on top, completes it.
I could eat salad for an entire week as I find it so refreshing to have in the summer plus any time of year salad isn't just for the summer. What I love about salads are that they are so nice and light to have, bright and colorful (as it is about the color) and easy to make.
I really enjoyed taking part in this survey as I really enjoy my salads, looking forward to your next poll.
Hi Lotus-Blossom ,
Thank you for saying that about the poll/survey. Glad you're able to participate with the rest of us, too.
Yes, salad of all types is very healthy, and I plan to have one tonight with hummus and other items on the side with dinner.
Watermelon feta mint. So delicious.
