OT Salad for Guild Meeting

I have to make a salad for or guild meeting. We are having a relaxed
meeting. People with their last name A-L have to make a salad and people
with M-Z have to make a dessert. So there will be a lot of the usual salads.
I am looking for something good, different, and easy. Can anyone help me?

Howdy!
Oh, thanks for asking! g

A simple salad w/ a tropical touch;
we ate it first in Granbury, Tx so we call it...
Granbury Salad. G
Greens, whatever lettuce you like and some fresh spinach
Cubed cooked ham 1/2 - 1 cup
Chopped pecans 1/4 - 1/2 cup
Chopped pineapple 1/2 - 1 cup
shredded Parmesan cheese -- 1/2 cup or so
really good Thousand Island dressing
I use about 1/4 cup of the pineapple juice in the dressing,
mix it up, pour it over the rest of the ingredients which have been
cleverly and creatively tossed together.
The Granbury tea shop serves this salad w/ some fabulous
homemade buttery garlic croutons. YUM!!!

Now you've gone and done it, She: I want some! ;-D

Last week I made a carrot-cranberry-pecan salad that disappeared lickity
split.

Grate 4-5 carrots. Add a couple of handfuls of dried cranberries and a
couple of handfuls of chopped pecans. Stir in just enough mayo to barely
coat, and salt to taste. I use soy mayo, which has the added benefit of
being okay at room temp for a while.

You could sub raisins for the cranberries, and any nut you like for the
pecans, and it's still good.

This isn't necessarily an inexpensive salad to make, but it's easy and very
delicious. I can't provide exact measurements for all ingredients so you'll
have to use your best judgement, depending on how many people you need to
feed.


SHRIMP & BOW-TIES SALAD

cooked shrimp, tails removed
baby leaf lettuce (specifically!) torn into bite size pieces
cherry tomatoes, halved
manderine orange slices (canned & drained)
bow-tie pasta, cooked and chilled (use the smallest size you can find and
allow perhaps 1 oz. uncooked per person)
walnut halves
top with parmesan cheese, freshly grated or the 'fancy' kind

citrus (or raspberry) vinagarette dressing

(sp?) and some pine nuts - mmmmm yummy

Not a salad but a very easy salad dressing - was a hit here at our last
luncheon and Maree was kind enough to pass the recipe on.

2 tblspns veg oil
1 teaspn sesame oil
1/4 cup olive oil
2 tblspns light soy sauce
1/4 cup lime juice
1/2 teaspn sugar
2 teaspns sambal oeler (I assume this is available anywhere!?)
2 cloves garlic

A nice spicy dressing without requiring fire extinguishers. On the day
Maree didn't have any limes so she used lemon juice.
