Foodie Friday: Going For The Green - Salad

 

Every once in a while I ask "Mr. Shop This" for ideas on blog topics. When I asked him about a theme for today's post, his first thought was The Masters golf tournament. I don't know what golf food is, but they are all going for the coveted green jacket this weekend. And that is how we came to salads today. Even the non veggie eater in your life will have to admit, this recipe roundup looks delish! 


Spring Cobb Salad 
This salad gets five forks for presentation and prettiness alone! The fresh herb dressing with Dijon, honey, basil and balsamic sounds fab!

Ensalada Mixta
Packed with a punch of Spanish flavors, this is one hearty salad.  You will think you are in Barcelona while eating it. 

Honey Mustard Pretzel Chicken Salad With Avocado & Bacon
Let's start with the fact that these chicken fingers have been coated with pretzel crumbs. Then everything is topped off with a creamy honey mustard dressing. What a flavor combo!

Roasted Radicchio Wedge Salad
Here's a new take on a classic, but sounds even better! It's topped with a balsamic vinegar reduction, walnuts, blue cheese, and parsley.

Kosterina Olive Oil and Flavored Balsamic Vinegar Set
Crafted in small batches. The olive oil is said to be buttery with a slight peppery finish. Then you select either a Fig or Chocolate Balsamic to pair with it. It's a beautiful set, and a great gift for the foodie. Ships for free from...

Spring Nicoise Salad
This stylish salad features all the colors of Spring. The photo doesn't show seafood, but of course, you can add tuna, salmon, or even chicken
How Sweet Eats

Christo House Salad
At a restaurant, I always pass on the "house salad." A bowl of lettuce with a plain vinaigrette is just too boring for me. It doesn't take much to make a creative salad. Heather proves it with this delicious looking recipe.

Reactive Glaze Salad Bowl
The Dusty mint color is so very pretty. Dare to be different, and think outside the wooden bowl.

Blueberry Almond and Goat Cheese Salad
If that title sounds delicious to you, how about adding a blueberry balsamic vinaigrette? This salad is meant for sharing! YUM.

Strawberry Spinach Salad
A stunning and healthy salad that is really easy to put together. That soft goat cheese seals the deal.

OXO Steel Salad Spinner
I have always wanted one. It's about time that I do something about it. This model gets rave reviews.

Spring Roll Salad
With Spicy Peanut Dressing
One could call this the lazy spring roll recipe. Those rolls take quite a bit of time to create, but this salad comes together in 15 minutes. Unique and sounds amazing!

Shrimp Caesar Salad Stuffed Sweet Potatoes
The most appealing recipe of the mix in my humble opinion. It's a healthy complete meal recipe.

Spicy Southwestern Salad With Avocado Dressing 
This recipe featuring roasted sweet potatoes, black beans, corn, lettuce, and creamy avocado dressing, has my name written all over it. A must make!

Balsamic Drizzles
The perfect addition to salads, cheese, meats, and veggies. These delicious condiments have been cast aged and made on the farm. Pick your flavor ~ Roasted Garlic, Whyte Balsamic, or Fig
 and Elderberry. 

Hawaiian Tequila Chicken Salad With Pineapple Vinaigrette
This recipe had me at "tequila" which you will find in the marinade. If you can't get away for Spring Break, this salad has all of the tropical feels.
