What are your favorite salad toppings?
I'm trying to eat more of a plant-based diet and am looking for salad ideas to mix things up a little from day to day. What are your favorite salad toppings?

Oh, I love to load up my salads... haha... so outside of typical veggies... I love to add fruit (strawberries, blueberries, peaches or dried cranberries, dried pineapple, etc.)... nuts (pecans, almonds, or pistachios)... cheese (cheddar or feta)... and anything else that looks yummy in the cupboard.

Oh, I am queen of "dump it all in" salads! LOL! I usually dig through my fridge and pantry, and if it's there, I dump it in.
Here's a few random ideas (I never do all of these in one salad, for the record!) Canned beans (kidney, garbanzo) Nuts (walnuts, sliced almonds, pecans, cashews, peanuts) Shredded carrots Cucumber Hard boiled egg Tomato (we like grape tomatoes) grapes, sliced in half craisins or raisins Sliced strawberries Thinly sliced red onion Croutons (homemade are the best!) Thin curls of Parmesan cheese Crumbled blue or feta cheese Olives (green, kalamata, black) Thin slices of red, green, or yellow pepper Red cabbage Chilled peas |

I don't eat salad dressing so I always have to have something on my salads - croutons, cheese, dried cranberries, nuts are my favorites. My hubby and boys put on Pik-Niks! LOL

I'll eat almost any salad with tomatoes on it. Ceaser, house salad, cucumber, pasta salad, any. I also love to throw in corn in most of my salads.

And me so bummed darn dental student cancels a fitting for today (fist in air, grrrrr) Well off to my corner! |

My salad usually consists of lettuce(different types), shredded carrots, cucumbers, croutons, bacon bits, chicken, cheese and salad dressing on the side. Kinda boring I guess.

That's me! Well, minus the cheese I like pine nuts, slivered almonds, or sunflower seeds, and dried fruits are great when we have them as well

My salads are all pretty simple: carrots, green bell peppers, cheese, croutons, spinach, chicken or turkey - depending on if I make it or buy it. I like the spring mix of greens or the "leaves from outside" as my daughter says
