Do you love a summer salad?
Elyn MacInnis from Shanghai, China on August 30, 2013:
Yum. I love salad. In China we have to be careful to only eat salad at home or where we know it has been washed well and rinsed with clean water. It makes making salad a little more tiring! But it is worth it. Thanks for all the recipes you collected here.
June Campbell from North Vancouver, BC, Canada on August 23, 2013:
What a great collection.

clouda9 lm on May 13, 2012:
I have been in the mood for salad for days now. Just tossed up a simple Greek salad last night - romaine, olives, red onion, cherry tomatoes, feta then drizzled with olive oil and balsamic, which kinda sorta curbed my cravings. Mmm! to your summer salad list.

Excellent recipes - thanks for sharing.
Deb Kingsbury from Flagstaff, Arizona on May 07, 2012:
I've been eating loads of salads lately, since I'm doing Weight Watchers (those pesky 20 pounds!) so the more variety, the better. Plain ol' lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers and carrots gets old.
Dianne Loomos on May 06, 2012:
It's getting warm enough here for summer salads. I've been craving potato salad!
Auntie-M LM on May 06, 2012:
