A salad is good any time of the year, but with the arrival of Spring, the veggies look better and better. From artichokes to zucchini, there is a recipe that can be tossed together for lighter meals as the weather warms up.
Yes, you read that right. What looks like pasta is really zucchini! And doesn't pesto make everything taste better? I think this is a must try.

A salad could not be any more attractive! Made with clementines, oh yum!
The Clever Carrot
Who said a salad bowl needs to be round? An ideal piece for people who love to entertain. The set makes a truly lovely gift.

Just gorgeous! I so love grilled bread in a salad. In fact, I always grill my croutons when I make them (but rarely eat them). One of the most colorful components of this salad are watermelon radishes.

This recipe takes a classic slaw and turns it into salad with character. Love that there is not a drop of mayo in the ingredient list. It's a pretty presentation.
Golubka Kitchen
I never quite got the attraction to this type of salad. There is just too much lettuce for me. Now that dressing, I could eat by itself. This recipe is a real crowd pleaser. You digging this, Mr. Shop This?
Foodie Crush
Said to be a game-changing vinegar. This is one of my favorite pleasures in life. A really good Balsamic elevates everything. Made in Modena, Italy

This one is for "Ms. Shop This," who I believe could live on carrots. Made with the marvelous multi-colored variety, this looks like a fun salad to make. Don't you just love shaving veggies?

Cinco de Mayo comes to mind, but I couldn't wait. I know I would love this dressing, as I add lime to almost everything I create.
Half Baked Harvest
This is a great little gadget! It makes mixing dressings so easy, you will never buy store bought again.
Sur La Table
I have to fess up, this salad will never be made in my kitchen. "Mr. Shop This," would hide every one of those peas under his plate. But for those who do like peas, this is one super Spring salad. Did you see those purple potatoes? What a colorful creation!
Lemon Tree Cafe
The mint, parsley and basil chopped in the dressing just adds a splash of Spring green to this simple but sensational salad. By the way, don't be limited by the seafood in the ingredient list. Use what's available. Let the sea be your oyster!
Gourmet Traveller
My dear friend, Sara, salad maker extraordinaire, wouldn't think of making a salad without one. It is the best way to clean and crisp your greens.
Williams Sonoma
This recipe had me at macerated "Strawberry Vinaigrette." Sweet and savory is always a winning combination. This salad is a meal in itself. Lovely to serve at lunch.

No need for a centerpiece, this limited edition and numbered piece is art for the table!
Hands down, the most fun Tuna Nicoise I have ever seen. This happens to be one of my fave entrees ever, but I have not made the crazy good basil dressing before. Oh Jamie!

A good salad dressing usually begins with a good olive oil. Yes, there is a difference in Olive Oil grades. Produced in Greece, these oils are the real thing. What a beautiful hostess gift.

Hollywood's favorite salad from the A-List Ivy Restaurant in LA. The dressing with Balsamic, lime and Agave is beyond good. If you can't get to The Ivy,watch a video and get the recipe at
