Every Day a Different Salad
From Dorothy McNett's recipes at www.dorothymcnett.com. Eat more greens!!! Make your own dressings!!! Make it a complete meal with greens, vegetables, cheeses, nuts, seeds, fresh fruits, dried fruits, cooked seafood of all kinds, left-over meats or poultry, cooked rice and/or beans, etc., etc., etc!!
It is called a "Tossed Salad" for many reasons.
