    My recipe for a delicious big salad.

    I eat a salad just about everyday. I’m talking big salad for meal kind of salad. These simple ingredients are what I usually throw together though some of them are extras for a special salad.

    • lettuce base – My go to lettuce base is usually romaine, sliced cucumbers, radishes, red onions and peppers.
    • meat or protein – I like to use leftovers like chicken, steak, hamburger or even pulled pork. Shrimp and canned tuna are also good options. I also LOVE gyro strips if I can find them in the freezer section.
    • cheese – If I’m using cheese it’s usually crumbled blue cheese, feta, goad cheese, asiago, etc. I like a strong cheese or otherwise I don’t bother.
    • something crunchy – I like some crunch so I’ll add a few pecans, walnuts or sliced almonds. Seeds work well too like sunflower or pepitas.
    • miscellaneous – These are the type of things I add for an extra burst of flavor every once in awhile. There are foods that I eat on a rare occasion: hard boiled eggs, bacon bits, olives, artichoke hearts, hearts of palm, pickled onions, pickles etc.
    • herbs – Herbs are great for certain types of salads. I like cilantro for Asian or Mexican flavored salads. Basil is great for caprese types of salads. Fresh parsley always adds a freshness to things like tabouli. Lastly in the summer my favorite fresh herb to use is mint on a simple salad which adds a cooling effect.

    Carb counts for different salad ingredients.

    Below is a little chart for your to see the carb counts of items I like to use on a salad. You can pick and choose what you want according to your likes.

    Types of lettuces to try.

    Below is a graphic showing all the different kinds of lettuces and greens you can try. My go to is romaine lettuce but some of my other favorite as are butter lettuce, spinach, leaf lettuce and arugula.

    Arugula and watercress have a peppery taste that I love but it’s hard to find around me. However Aldi’s Artisan Lettuces usually have leaf lettuce and sometimes butter lettuce.

    So if you need a change of pace from Romaine or Iceberg give one of these a try or grow them yourself!

    Other bases to use in your salad other than lettuce.

    Some other things I like to use for my salad base are:

    • coleslaw, shredded cabbage, broccoli slaw, etc.
    • raw cauliflower rice
    • chopped fresh vegetables of any kind
    • veggie noodles
    • chopped raw broccoli or even chopped raw cauliflower
    • cooked turnips, rutabagas or celeriac (these are for faux potato type salads)
    • just cucumber slices or just tomatoes
    • meats like chicken salad and tuna salad
