Low Fat Tropical Prawn and Carrot Salad

Tue, 04 Sep 2007 20:27:07 -0400

This is my latest attempt to make something tasty for lunch that fits into my new-found low fat and many fish and veggie based diet. I had a normal carrot salad in mind but wanted to make it something I could eat as a lunch meal. I marked this down as two servings but I will be honest and say that I usually eat it all by myself when I feel the need for a big meal but don't want to spare the calories. The biggest pain about preparing this dish is peeling all the carrots around my dogs who love them and go insane when I just get one out of the fridge! Cooking time includes chilling time in the fridge. -- posted by Sarah_Jayne

Turkey Fruit Salad

Wed, 26 Sep 2007 20:10:09 -0400

"This salad is a great way to use leftover turkey after Thanksgiving dinner or anytime. The citrus fruits make it refreshing, and the apples and toasted nuts give it a nice crunch. Just add a basket of breadsticks or rolls to round out your lunch or light supper." From taste of home. Cooking time is chilling time. -- posted by Courtly

Wed, 17 Oct 2007 23:51:59 -0400

This has been my family's favorite salad for Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners since I was little. It was originally called Lime Party Salad and my mom got it out of the Betty Crocker Picture Cookbook in the early 60's. My mom made it with cherry Jello and my little brother names it "Pink Salad". -- posted by Lavender Lynn

My five Sisters-In-Law Kerr (SILK) get together once-a-year for a girly weekend. One year SILK-ster #3 themed our whole weekend around a "tea party." She pulled out ALL the stops: the good china, linen, crystal--WOW! This recipe was served in beautiful little glass bowls, with a dash of 7-Up poured over it. COOKING TIME reflects time needed for the freezer. Add ONE HOUR for thawing at serving time. -- posted by Debber

Tropical Chicken Waldorf Salad

Sat, 27 Oct 2007 18:37:19 -0400

The Waldorf Salad has it's origins at The Waldorf-Astoria Hotel, in NYC, NY. In 1896 Oscar Tschirky, Maitre d'Hotel made this salad which contained apples. chicken, celery & mayonnaise - later the walnuts were added. Well, I am taking poetic license and making some more changes to it. It has always been served on a bed of lettuce. Based loosely on a recipe provided by The National Chicken Council. You can make this with a store-bought rotisserie chicken(if you do skip the first four steps.) Did not include cooling times. -- posted by Manami

Easy Elegant Cottage Cheese and Pineapple Salad

Mon, 19 Nov 2007 22:28:16 -0500

Individual servings of a very colorful starter or attractive salad on the side which can be made ahead of time. Super easy for a beginner cook and good for you too! Before you think, eeks, mayonnaise, give it a try, it works really well. Of course you could omit the mayonnaise if you prefer. When we were kids my mom used to make this for us for lunch or for salad at dinner and we all loved it! :) -- posted by Summerwine

Creamy Fresh Cranberry and Fruit Salad

Sat, 24 Nov 2007 16:49:51 -0500

Sweet and tart fruits with marshmallows and whipped cream. Good side for poultry, pork or ham. I made this for a big family Thanksgiving dinner and it went over well. As discussed in the forums at http://www.recipezaar.com/bb/viewtopic.zsp?p=3434704#3434704 I wanted a salad similar to several mentioned in that thread, but none was exactly what I wanted, so I took a bit from each and made my own adaptation.

Another recipe from the 1980 version of the Grace Evangelical Congregational Church cookbook from Muir, Pennsylvania that was given to me by my Nana when I became an adult.

This dessert/salad brings back such fond feelings. This is the recipe my grandmother served the kids 2-3 times a year when we were all together. After she died no one could find her recipe for this.

The note above the recipe says that "This is a play on the original spinach salad; it can be served as a starter or offered alongside roasted chicken, pork or duck.

Watermelon Basket Fruit Salad

Thu, 28 Aug 2008 19:42:35 -0400

Where I come from a fruit salad is fresh fruit cut up and mixed in a bowl with some colorful berries. When I moved west I had to plan a buffet so I decided to carve a watermelon and asked some of my volunteers to make fruit salad so I could continue filling the watermelon basket with fruit throughout the evening. Well, I got everything but what I thought! I got jello molds, towering quivering things with berries and cool whip all over them; I got a berry and mayonaise and brown sugar concoction, and absolutely nothing I could fill my watermelon with. One of the gals said I should have asked for fresh fruit cut up and on a plate. duh. Now I know. Honestly, I never saw such amazing creations. They were all eaten up and once the watermelon balls were gone I just tossed my carved melon. Wah.... -- posted by Secret Agent

Strawberry Rice Salad

Mon, 10 Aug 2009 11:30:47 -0400

I have found several recipes, vintage, if you will that might remind some of the baby-boomers and older of another time in our history. I would like to share some of them with you. As in earlier times, when money was a little harder to come by,this "old-fashioned" recipe is made with cooked rice and a few of the "usual suspects," gelatin, pineapple, nuts, are you beginning to remember? If you do,maybe you would like to make this again, and if you don't maybe you would like to try it anyway, because this is a wonderful dish, that I truly hope you will enjoy. Cooling time is cooking time. Plan ahead, this is better made the day before you plan to serve it. -- posted by FLUFFSTER

A Taste of Summer Citrus Salad

Sharon the Rocket gifted me with Now Serving: FMB Favourites, a cookbook from the Farmers and Merchants Bank. This recipe sounds so refreshing. Adapted slightly to make it a little less sweet. -- posted by evelyn/athens

Piquant Caper Salad Molds

Mon, 19 Oct 2009 13:22:44 -0400

This very unusual recipe came from my husband's step-grandmother. I'll be honest with you: people who try this either ADORE it and clamor for the recipe, or take a bite and say, "hmmmm....innnnteresting?" (then don't finish it.) Happily, the former outnumber the latter! If you're like me and really love the sweet/sour/salty combination, you'll love this. I serve it at buffet dinners on a big glass tray, with each individual mold atop a curly lettuce leaf, and dolloped with a bit of homemade mayonnaise. (Note: the "cooking time" is actually "chilling time.") -- posted by La Dilettante

Island Pineapple Cottage Cheese Salad

Tue, 27 Oct 2009 01:21:28 -0400

If you like the combination of pineapple and cottage cheese, you'll like this simple & tasty gelatin salad. It's delicious as is, or to dress it up, scoop it onto a lettuce leaf with a little mayo on the side. Be sure to use pineapple canned in its own juice, and don't leave out a drop. Cook time is chill time. Enjoy! -- posted by LoriLou

Fresh Cranberry Pecan Salad

This salad is my daughter and mother's favorite Thanksgiving recipe. I used to make it every year for the teachers at my children's school--they RAVED over it. After Thanksgiving, I like to have it as a snack over plain yogurt. It is absolutely to die for! -- posted by Chef #738454
