Southwest Chicken Salad

This Southwestern Chicken Salad is so easy to throw together using a store-bought rotisserie chicken. The dressing is sweet and tangy and made by mixing equal parts ranch dressing with your favorite bbq sauce.

Mixed Green Salad with Strawberries & Pecans

This Mixed Green Salad with Strawberries & Pecans is my new favorite salad. I used a hard boiled egg slicer to cut the strawberries, which makes it fast and easy.

Radish and Jicama Salad

This Radish Jicama Salad, which is a very fresh tasting Spring salad, is loosely based on a recipe from Real Simple magazine. I changed a few things. Instead of red onions, I used 2 green onions and I left out the cilantro. I despise cilantro!

Kale and Broccoli Slaw Salad

This Kale and Broccoli Slaw Salad is something that I copied from Trader Joe's. You can add shredded cooked chicken to make it more of an entrée. Kale is much better if you massage the dressing into it. You can make it ahead and let it sit with the dressing.

Hot Potato Salad

This Hot Potato Salad is a recipe my sister-in-law got from her friend's family. It's a perfect hearty side dish for Octoberfest. The hot potatoes get tossed in a  smokey, tangy, bacon vinaigrette. You know, to soak up all that beer!

Sicilian Chunk Vegetable Salad

I've been making this Sicilian Chunk Vegetable Salad for years. It’s a wonderful, satisfying salad. I love anything crunchy. It’s best to make it earlier in the day.
