Salads Galore!

I looooooove a good salad.
Like seriously. I have 1-2 salads every day! 

But you know what's weird? I never order them while we're out to eat. 

In fact, I never order anything that we can 'make at home'. But I just love the way that restaurants make salads. So many toppings, a ton of variety, and not just lettuce with dressing. 

So, I'm here to show you how I make restaurant quality salads at home. Who doesn't love that?! 

It's making my mouth water just thinking about them :)

Here's a couple of my favorite salads that we make on a weekly basis, along with the ingredients I like to keep on hand to make these salads convenient and quick!


Salads Galore!

Asian Sesame Chicken Salad

Mixed Greens
Grilled Chicken (grilled on stove in a bit of EVOO and sliced)
Mandarin Oranges (canned, and drained) 
Cherry Tomatoes
Chopped Red Onion
Wonton Strips/Chow Mein Noodles
Sesame Seeds 
Parmesan Shredded Cheese
Ken's Steakhouse Asian Sesame Dressing





Southwest Chipotle Chicken Salad

Mixed Greens
Grilled Chicken (can you tell I like grilled chicken?)
Corn (canned and drained)
Chopped Green Onion
Tortilla Strips (I like mine from target)
Sunflower Seeds
Mexican Shredded Cheese
Hidden Valley Southwest Chipotle Dressing



Taco Salad

Mixed Greens Butter Lettuce
Ground Beef (with taco seasoning)
Chopped Red Onion
Cherry Tomatoes

If you are bringing these salads on the go, just add all the ingredients into your tupperware before you're ready to eat, close the lid and give it a really good shake. 

If you're saving these yummy recipes to eat at home, just make sure to mix them up really good! It just makes it better for some reason :)

If any of y'all have a favorite salad, this salad lover would like to know in the comments below!
