This is a salad creation I came up with trying to imitate Chik-fil-a's "Berry Salad". Its not really close since theirs has chicken, grapes, shredded American cheese, granola and a berry balsamic vinaigrette. It is really tasty, but here is my twist on it and I love it!
1-2 heads green leaf lettuce
1/2 red onion
1/2 cup (give or take) feta cheese
small carton strawberries
1/2 bottle Brianna's blush wine vinaigrette
(all amounts can vary depending on your like/dislike of each)
Toss all ingredients together just prior to serving.
If you try it leave a comment on what you would change or if you like it, etc.

Wonton Chicken Salad
This is one of my all time favorite salads!
1 lb. chicken, cooked and diced (when in a hurry I use canned chicken)
2 heads lettuce (I prefer romaine)
1 bunch green onions, cut
small package slivered almonds
1 package wontons, fried til golden brown (I use approx 6- 6x6 egg roll skins)
Combine all of the above ingredients.
Dressing (put on just before serving):
1 c. oil
1/2 c sugar
1/2 c. white vinegar
2 tsp. pepper
2 tsp. salt
This salad is always a hit, whenever I make it.

Spinach Salad
1 bag/bunch spinach

Orange Dream Salad
2 small packages orange jello
2 small packages cook & serve pudding (don't use instant)
12 oz. Cool Whip (if you want it fluffier you can add more)
1 can mandarin oranges (I use 1-2 small cans)
4 cups water
Bring water, pudding and jello to a boil stirring occasionally. Let cool completely (I like to put it in whatever bowl I'll be serving it in at this point). Stir in Cool Whip and drained mandarin oranges. Serve immediately or chill and serve later.
You can change the flavor of the jello and the fruit added, but stick with the vanilla pudding.
