Good luck with your shop. make sure the dressings are tasty, and that you have some onion in some of your salads, also that you use fresh salad greens, some are so wilted it is a joke. I make loads of salads but one of the favourites with my guests is; Kumara, cook the kumara in small cubes, cook some bacon in butter and salt and pepper, chop capsicum, onion and and orange finely. Dressing is mayo, sour cream pour the bacon and butter into this and mix then gently stir through the rest of ingredients.

I read one on here the other day that used silverbeet sliced very finely and had a vinegraitte dressing, it sounded yum. If you type salad in the search box just on the left, it is headed Message Board, and then in the date posted click on the little arrow and then on anytime, then click search you will finds heaps of other recipes.

One I just had for lunch,
Grated carrot and apple with finely chopped fresh corriander and finely chopped Shallot greens then chunks of avocado and a boiled egg roughly chopped. Sometimes I have it with fried bacon pieces I throw some unflower and pumkin seeds in and toast with the bacon in the pan.
