    PINE NUTS!!

    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.

    I'm surprised nobody said cilantro. One of my favorites for low-cal flavor.

    ^^^ 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.

    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.

    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!
