    Here's an easy tuna salad-not the creamy sandwich kind--


    1 drained can o'tuna -save the juice for the cat!
    1 package of iceberg lettuce mix
    2 roma tomatoes
    .5 yellow onion
    1 cucumber
    Some green olives.

    Dressing of your choice.

    Some people like their veggies cut a certain way so chop, slice or dice away!

    You can add croutons, bacon bits or even some tortilla chips for crunch-Interesting twist? Instead of croutons take a handful of Fun Yums- Those fake onion rings chip things and add them to the bowl. They get funky soft in dressing so you can add them after you dress the salad!

    I don't know that I have a favorite salad recipe, but I do love to use salsa instead of salad dressing. Tomato juice works well too

    This is a salad I've been eating a lot lately.

    Romaine lettuce
    Slices of fresh pear
    dried cherries
    chopped walnuts
    Balsamic vinegar and olive oil dressing

    You gave me a great idea for salad dressing!
    Sour cream, milk to thin it out, 'mater juice and basil, S and P!
    Run that sucker through a blender?

    Fruit salads?

    Besides the fruit, what do you add to yours?

    I like shredded coconut and a seasoned salt in mine.

    At some Mexican stores you can get some pre-made salads with a lime -chile-salt packet that makes the FS really tasty !

    For salads, it's usually romaine lettuce, iceburg lettuce, and spinach. then cucumbers, carrots, yellow and white cheese. then oil and vinegar. that's pretty much it.

    for fruit salads, i love any kind of fruits really, sometimes with chili powder, lemon, and salt.

    Have you ever tried Tajin?

    http://www.mexgrocer.com/15002.html

    I put this on everything. especially my steamed veggies!

    The kids buy it for lemons, You'll see kids sucking on lemons sprinkling Tajin on it while they walk down the street.

    Don't blame me if you get hooked.
