We are going to a friend's house for dinner and we are supposed to bring a salad to pas.  They are making hamburgers, corn on the cob, and strawberry pie.  Anyone have a good suggestion for a nice salad that I could make to go along with dinner?  I'd love to try something new that I haven't made yet!  Thanks!!

    My favorite summertime salad is Spinach and Strawberry Salad (recipe from a Paula Deen cookbook). 

    Salad:
    1 package baby spinach
    1 medium cucumber, diced
    1 pint sliced strawberries
    1/4 cup sliced almonds

    Dressing: (put the dressing on right before serving, otherwise it gets soggy)
    1 Tbsp lemon juice
    2 Tbsp white wine vinegar
    1/3 cup sugar
    1 Tbsp vegetable oil
    1 tsp poppy seeds

    make a homemade pasta salad.  cut up some fresh broccoli, carrots, green onion, black olives, tomatoes (seeded) & toss with cooked rotini noodles & either a red wine vinarette dressing or a zesty italian dressing & then add a touch of red wine vinegar & top with some fresh shredded parmesan cheese.  Yumm O!  LOL

    hot potato salad.

    Bake your potatoes ( I microwave b/c it's quicker & easier).  then in a large mixing bowl shredd your potatoes & a stick of butter with a cheese grater & mix

    Then mix shredded cheese, sour cream, chives & bacon.  put in a casserole dish & heat in the oven on 350 until it bubbles. 

    hashbrown casserole.

    saute some diced onion & bell pepper in some olive oil or butter.  then mix the onion/peppers with a bag of frozen hashbrowns, mix can of cream celery (or cream of mushroom or chk..whatever you have) & a carton of sourcream.  Add shredded cheddar cheese & put into baking dish.  Top with crushed corn flakes.  Then pour 1/2 stick melted butter over the top of cornflakes.  Coer & bake on 375 until it bubbles..about 45min-1 hour.

    We do one similar to the first poster...

    Heart of Romaine and Spinach

    Strawberries

    Mandarin Oranges

    Almond Slices

    Cherry Tomatoes

    Brocolli

    For dressing, I like Raspberry Vinaigrette, but definitely wait until right before and you won't need much!

    Enjoy!!

    I'm such a salad girl...

    Mandarin oranges, cucumber and walnuts in field greens (for the dressing, I use the good seasons container. use olive oil, balsamic vinegar and instead of water, use the syrup/juice from the mandarin oranges container and add some fresh minced garlic to taste)

    pears, feta cheese, cucumber, and walnuts or pine nuts in spinach or field greens and use a raspberry vinaigrette as the dressing

    craisins (cranberry raisins), walnuts, cucumber in field green (can you tell what kind of lettuce i like?) with vidalia onion dressing
