Tuna Pasta Salad

Sun, 14 Jun 2009 21:14:16 -0400

This is a quick and simple lunch or light supper from 2009 Taste of Home Annual Recipes (courtesy of Sue Gronholz, Beaver Dam, Wisconsin). I doubled the recipe to have leftovers during the week. I followed the recipe except I used whole wheat pasta shells, red onion, regular mayonnaise (1 cup instead of 2 cups), and I tripled the peas. I also used 1/2 teaspoon salt and decided to add lemon pepper seasoning at the end for flavor. Works great when you're hungry now and need something quick. Yummy! -- posted by AmyZoe

Loaves & Fishes Fish Salad

Mon, 15 Jun 2009 15:39:01 -0400

Passed down from generation to generation, this salad is based on one made by Jon Snow, who owned a fish store in Sagaponack called Loaves & Fishes. Ina Garten's friend bought the shop in the mid 1970's and turned it into a specialty food store and then sold it to a friend. But they all kept making Jon Snow's delicious fish salad. So here it is for you to enjoy too! -- posted by Sharon123

Shrimp Starter Salad

Thu, 25 Jun 2009 02:59:15 -0400

This is a lovely way to start your dinner party - The salad makes a colorful presentation and has a great combination of flavors. Double the recipe for larger groups. Serve the salad in individual bowls, arranging each ingredient artistically. Get everything ready ahead of time, except the avocado , slip the ingredients into the fridge in separate bowls then assemble just before serving. Use your favorite dressing or offer a choice of dressings to your guests and let them add it at the table. Personally, I like Zesty Italian dressing. Simple Easy and elegant looking salad!

Shrimp Bulgur Salad With Avocado Relish and Chipotle Dressing

Thu, 25 Jun 2009 03:11:25 -0400

Combining spicy and cooling ingredients for a festive main dish shrimp salad served on bulgur and ringed by avocado relish. Formalize the presentation by molding the shrimp and rice (in a rice mold or 6-oz. ramekin), then ringing with avocado relish and pouring remaining chipotle dressing as outer ring. The Avocado Relish can be made ahead and refrigerated. The Chipotle dressing makes 3 cups and can be held in the top of a double boiler over simmering water for 2 hours. (Bulgur is a nutritious, versatile wheat product with a pleasant, nut-like flavor and an extended shelf-life that allows it to be stored for long periods; it can be substituted for converted rice, although it is more nutritious.) The Avocado Relish can be prepared while the bulgur is cooking, hence the low preparation time. -- posted by KateL

Salad on the Run

Thu, 25 Jun 2009 03:19:42 -0400

Description- Made for Craz-E Contest Salad Division- Category-Main Dish. For those crazy days when you need something nourishing for yourself or the family and just have time to grab and go.this is a great 1 hand meal to take along or send in a lunchbox. Out of desperation I started making salads to go but the lettuce wraps would always fall apart or turn funky around the edges. I decided to wrap them in tortillas, saran wrap and foil to take with me to work or appointments. These handy all in ones are a great tummy saver when you are hungry and need a pick up or need to be able to eat quick and well. Teachers do that all the tme-20 min. for lunch and usually less than that. This idea came in handy. Lunchbox friendly too as you can put a cool pack on them to keep cool for hours. Be inventive and versatile to your flavors. Cook time is wrapping time 10 min. for 4 -- posted by Chef1MOM~Connie

Creamy Seafood Pasta Salad

"Salad Envy": That's what they'll have when you show up at the next potluck with this creamy, colourful and delicious offering. You can tell them it's low in calories too, but they probably won't believe you. :wink: Substitute the shrimp with salmon, tuna or lobster for a different taste experience. Note: After several hours of chilling, the pasta will absorb some of the dressing. To return it to a creamier consistency, simply add one or two tablespoons of salad dressing. Cooking time does not include time for refrigeration. Created for the Craze-E Salad Contest. -- posted by Diana #2

Shrimp Salad With Warm Bacon Dressing and Summer Bruschetta

Thu, 02 Jul 2009 02:22:35 -0400

I've tried many recipes for Spinach Salad with Warm Bacon Dressing, but none including shrimp. It looks really good, and the addition of a chopped peach makes this a recipe one I'll be interested in trying this summer. Note: Prep time does not include the time for cooking shrimp if using fresh instead of frozen pre-cooked shrimp. Also, the recipe calls for microwaving the bacon and also the dressing mixture. I'd just cook the bacon, and the dressing mixture, in a sauté pan on the stove. -- posted by TasteTester

Light and Versatile Seafood Salad

Wed, 15 Jul 2009 01:54:21 -0400

I initially wanted to make a lower-calorie version of seafood salad (the kind that often goes on a sandwich), and then when I threw it together the first time just wanting to see how it would taste, did less chopping. With larger pieces, it's great as a stand-alone salad, and more finely chopped works as a dip or would go well with pasta. -- posted by Chef #1322378

Crabby Avocado Salad

Sun, 26 Jul 2009 10:22:19 -0400

This is from a South Beach cookbook, but I like it with imitation crabmeat a lot better. The original recipe also calls for the jarred roasted red peppers but I find I don't really miss it if I don't have them. One of my favourites and it's even good thrown in a tortilla with a little lettuce for a sandwich! I will say though, it doesn't keep that well - eat it the day you make it as it get kind of watery and the avocado gets a little mushy the next day. I also usually just wing it with the cayenne, depending how much spice I feel like and I add more cilantro sometimes because I love it! -- posted by Cadillacgirl

Seafood Cobb Salad With a Florida Twist

Mon, 21 Sep 2009 12:25:31 -0400

This is classic Cobb salad flavors, but a definite twist. Smokey turkey bacon, mango, seafood (crab, lobster and or shrimp) and a fresh citrus vinaigrette, but just as good. Now for expense reasons, I love shrimp and crab, but by all means, use lobster for the ultimate if you want. I try to use some good crab (canned is fine) as well as some great shrimp from your local grocer. You can even use some grilled salmon which is just as fine for this. I love this elegant salad. You can vary the greens if you want some fresh spring greens, arugula or even watercress, but I happen to like romaine for my salad. Also I like to use the classic flavors of egg, bacon, tomatoes, but I love to add some onions to the salad base and then the fruit gives it a nice twist with the seafood and the citrus vinaigrette is a nice change. I still top with gorgonzola for the bleu cheese lovers for some of that basic flavor and then top with with fine chopped walnuts for some crunch. But have fun, use your favorites... nothing wrong with changing it up a bit. Yes lots of ingredients, but nothing hard, just some chopping involved, but it makes a great hearty salad. Fun for entertaining. Serve a nice bowl of fresh soup to start and then some homemade bread with the salad ... that is a very hearty dinner and a nice change from heavy pastas, sauces and casseroles. But I'm a big salad person, so I love it and it is always a crowd pleaser. This makes 4-6 nice full size salads or 8 smaller salads for an starter. -- posted by SarasotaCook

Pepper Crusted Tuna, Mustard Sauce and a Pea Shoot Salad

Tue, 06 Oct 2009 11:30:56 -0400

This was adapted by a friend of mine ... who got it from a caterer ... who got it from a friend ... who got it from a magazine, who got it from WHO KNOWS where. Well you get the idea - then I got it. Regardless, I love it and have been making it for a couple of years and it certainly isn't difficult and I love that pea sprouts have become more widely available this days. The sprouts or also known as shoots and tuna mix nicely with the tangy mustard sauce to make a very easy quick dish to make. It literally takes 15 maybe 20 minutes to make. And agreed you will pay a little premium for the pea sprouts but you could also use other micro greens or spring greens, but you don't know what you are missing until you try them. And the tuna ... buy it when it goes on sale, that is when I do. This is rich in flavor but at the same time very delicate and well worth the extra money for a nice Sunday dinner or for company. Just add a soup to start and maybe some grilled bread to make a perfect dinner. -- posted by SarasotaCook

Shells Stuffed With Fresh Tuna Salad and a Tomato Vinaigrette

Wed, 07 Oct 2009 14:15:50 -0400

This is quick, easy, and makes a great light dinner. I love salads, and love to try to come up with something new that is still hearty, satisfying and easy. I love to serve this with a hearty creamy white bean soup, or maybe a fresh garden potato soup or your favorite. Also, fresh grilled asparagus, grilled zucchini or marinated mushrooms or some green beans. I serve these pretty shells over a small bed of lettuce and let the fresh tomato vinaigrette be the dressing for that as well. One last note ... you can use canned or packaged tuna (I prefer the packaged, much nicer texture), but I use fresh tuna for this. It literally takes 5 minutes or less to saute, let it cool as you cut up and prepare everything else. Stuffed shells and then drizzled with a fresh tomato vinaigrette over fresh greens makes a great salad option to that every night tossed salad. I don't like this as a cold salad but room temp, I find the room temp really accents the flavors rather than hides them. -- posted by SarasotaCook

Sarasota's Salmon, Roasted Fennel & Lemony Spinach Salad

Thu, 08 Oct 2009 17:35:46 -0400

Light healthy and easy to make. Roasted fennel and spinach salad with a very light lemon mustard vinaigrette topped with roasted salmon. This is healthy and quick but a beautiful dish to serve for guests or just a nice dinner for you and your husband or significant other or just family. As you cook the salmon and fennel all in the oven, roast some simple new potatoes at the same time on the same pan and save clean up time. Drizzle the potatoes with olive oil, salt and pepper and you have an easy dinner side dish to go with the salad and salmon. -- posted by SarasotaCook

Gazpacho Shrimp Salad

Thu, 12 Nov 2009 01:03:22 -0500

This is great to serve anytime! Makes a great lunch and a fine dinner if you toss a little wine and a loaf of crusty bread in the deal! You can use whatever vinegar you like, and can add, after tasting, more. Nakano makes several seasoned vinegars that are scrumptious! Smoked paprika is one of the best seasonings I've ever used; you can't believe how fragrant it is nd the taste is amazing. However, having said that, it is very pricey. I cannot advise you excpept to tell you that without it, the recipe won't taste the same. -- posted by FLUFFSTER
