Spring Greens Strawberry Salad With Strawberry Dressing

It is that time of the year when we look forward to fresh salads with fruit and delicious dressings. Today I am mixing some of my spring greens from our lettuce bucket in the garden with some fresh strawberries. I have made a delicious strawberry dressing that is perfect for this salad and then topped it with crumbled Feta Cheese. This is a great lunch salad or a great side salad for any meal. A perfect garden to table recipe for you to enjoy!


Retro Ambrosia Salad

Our Retro Ambrosia Salad is a fall back on a southern salad that was very popular during the 1950's. I remember my Mother her sisters and friends always serving Ambrosia Salad at just about every special dinner, pot luck or event. I always wondered why they called it a salad, because to me it was a dessert. It is still like dessert to me and I just love it! This recipe has lots of wonderful fruit with a delicious dressing that puts it over the top for me. If you want to come home with an empty bowl from the pot luck, carry this salad, everyone always loves it!


Retro Grape and Celery Salad With Sour Cream Dressing

Our Retro Grape and Celery Salad With Sour Cream Dressing is a great salad for any occasion. This is a recipe that goes together really fast and has the most delicious sour cream dressing. The fresh taste of the grapes combined with the crunchy bite of celery brings back all those memories when we used to make this salad in our homemaking class. This is one of my favorite salads and brings a lot of comfort to any meal and we have used it for a snack many times.


Pear Salad With Blue Cheese Ranch Dressing

I really enjoy this salad, but the dressing is amazing, and a perfect combination for this mix of greens, nuts and fruit. This Blue Cheese Ranch Dressing recipe has a delicious combination of spice and cheese, add the fruit and nuts with the salad greens and you have a real winner. I have added grilled chicken to this salad to dress it up a bit and served it for a luncheon, but it is a great salad without the grilled chicken. Served with or without the grilled chicken it is a winner every time.
