I have a hard time creating new salads.  I love ordering salads because I don’t have to think about what ingredients go together and what dressing to use.  I never remember what ingredients go in them by the time I get home, though, and my biggest challenge are dressings. My lunch today was fairly easy to come up with. I used my leftover tuna steak, shredded it and put it on lettuce.  My dressing was a mock tartar sauce.  Do you have any easy favorite salads to share?  I’d love to try them.  Please post your recipe below.
