As per the title really - looking to expand my salad repertoire to liven up dinner a bit! Preferably stuff that's easy to make and going to keep me feeling full afterwards, so not just a bag of salad leaves and some cherry tomatoes 🙂

black spaghetti, feta cheese, basil leaves, cherry tomatoes and garlic flavoured olive oil as a recent packed lunch.
With the big plus of how vile black spaghetti looks when coated with oil.

Spinach, watercress and rocket leaves
Chopped spicy chicken
Optional beans
Tossed in hot sauce for dressing - Cholula for me as I don't like it vinegary
Cheese on top
Bit of salsa if required

Chickpea salad
halved cherry tomatoes, finely chopped red onion, zest of a lemon and a chilli to your taste. Bring tin of chickpeas to boil and let cool. Once cooled slightly add to the tomatoes, onion and chilli.
Finish off with 1/2 pack cubed feta cheese and chopped fresh mint leaves.
The dressing is the juice of the zested lemon mixed with the oil of your choice (I use 2 oil to 1 lemon juice ratio
Enjoy

Handful each of fresh mint, coriander and parsley, coarsely chopped up into a bulb or two of roasted fennel..

Add plenty of shredded cabbage, carrot and beets along with plenty of lemon and your favourite leaves..
Chuck in loads seeds and nuts for protein and you should be able to keep going all day 🙂

Served on an endive leaf, this works great as finger food.

Finely sliced raw fennel with an orange juice, white wine/cider vinegar and honey dressing with rocket is one of my current favourites.

Define salad - when does rice and pasta, or potato, go from main meal to salad? When cold?
