This Fresh Salmon Salad has fresh avocado hass, strawberries, mixed greens and its own poppy seed dressing. This salad is great on a warm summer day as you sit on the deck under your umbrella. It also makes a great dinner for two with candlelight, soft music and a glass of your favorite wine. Enjoy!
Chock full of goodness this Shrimp Cobb Salad is a crowd pleaser! Bacon, eggs, corn, avocado, cheeses and seasonings bring out the flavors if he shrimp. The cilantro lime vinaigrette dressing become the secret addition to a perfect and healthy meal.
Chicken Jerk Salad consists of mixed greens topped with mozarella cheese, avocado, grilled green and red peppers, grilled chicken breast and marinated with a slightly spicy jerk sauce. This brightly colored salad is full of a robust flavor bringing out the jerk flavor only after teasing your palate with the avocado and peppers. Even though I used a spring mix of greens a fresh spinach leaf could also be used. The spicy marinade adds a just a touch of flavor and is not heavy. Perfectly balanced in texture, color and flavor, this salad is just the treat for a luncheon or light supper. Give it a try! This salad is well worth the wait.
I could live on these type of salads all summer! Wonderful combos!
