Taco Salad:
bag lettuce
tomatoes, sliced and cut in quarters
Cucumbers, sliced and cut in half
pickles, diced
purple onion, diced (optional)
Mushrooms, sliced (can be sauteed)(optional)
Taco or Tortilla chips, slightly crushed
for fleishig salad, you can brown ground meat with taco seasoning or just add crumbled leftover hamburger.
dressing: equal parts mayo and salsa
dress the salad and add taco chips immediately before serving. you don’t want the chips to get soggy.
Tomato salad:
Egg Tomatoes, sliced thin
Purple onion, sliced thin and cut in half (if too strong for your taste, use scallions instead)
dress with lemon juice, olive oil, salt, garlic powder and a little basil
Terra stick salad:
Romaine lettuce or euro salad mix
grape tomatoes, halved
mushrooms, sliced
terra sticks
dressing: ketchup, vinegar, honey, drop of mustard, garlic powder
dress the salad and add terra sticks immediately before serving. you don’t want the chips to get soggy.
String bean and red pepper salad:
Fresh string beans, washed and cut into smallish pieces
Red pepper, cut to same size as string beans
Purple onion, diced
dressing: mayo, drop vinegar, garlic powder, drop of mustard, dash salt, dash sugar. add water slowly til creamy, pourable consistency.
this salad lasts for a while, so you can prepare it in advance. (I came up with it when we forgot to steam the string beans before shabbos and had a ton of red peppers. it was gone by the end of the meal…)If you want to add some sliced baby corn as well, it shouldn’t detract…
