I also really love cucumbers and feta cheese (or gorgonzola). I like my salads with lots of different veggies, for lots of different colors and textures. Sometimes I get lucky and find a salad bar with tofu!
I hate creamy dressings. I love vinaigrettes.
^ forgot to mention red onions. yum! and sprouts of all kinds.
i'm having salad for dinner tonight. i often make salad and add lamb, and lots of low-fat tzatki dip as a dressing. it's awesome. too garlicy for tonight tho cos i gotta work. so tonight i'm gonna have grilled chicken salad with a mustard vinaigrette![]()
I'm surprised nobody said cilantro. One of my favorites for low-cal flavor.

what's cilantro???
edit: ahhh, nevermind, it's the same thing as coriander.
^^^ Um... no, I don't think it is. Coriander is a spice, isn't it? Cilantro is a leafy herb, usually added fresh and raw to salads and salsa. It's big in Mexican food. I usually love fresh herbs, but I don't care for coriander.
i like:
hard boiled eggs
little bacon pices
cherry tomoatoes
red onions
green pepper
mushrooms
walnuts




Lately my salads consist of:
brocolli
snap peas
Onion
Pepper
Mushroom
Crunchy sprout mix
Navy beans
a few dried cranberries
shreeded moz/ramono cheese
The spice you are talking about is cilantro seeds. Some poeple call it cilantro, some coriander leaves and some refer to it as chinese parsley. It all the same thing.Originally Posted by Yekhefah
Oh yeah I love gorgonzola or blue cheese, kidney beans, sauteed mushrooms and tomatos. I prefer to use arugula instaead of lettuce.

Olives
Grilled chicken
Soy beans
Almonds
Little tomatos
I do pretty basic salads: lettuce, tomato, mushrooms, cucumber...sometimes crutons & bacon pieces (not artificial), but I like to play with my dressing. I use fat free ranch and add either KC Masterpiece (awesome with the bacon!), or homemade salsa and cilantro. It makes it soooo much better! I also love adding grilled chicken or salad shrimp. That's at home, if I go to Sweet Tomatoes, I'm gung-ho! Darn it now I want a salad!
