Salads

[Phalex]

I've....Ive got a package of tabbouleh that I've had for probably two years. Haven't known what to do with it. So you just eat it as is?

A package?

It's fresh parsley, bulgar wheat, olive oil, lemon juice.......

I dunno what's in the package, but it's probably slightly rancid cracked wheat......

Get your Palastnian homies to hook you up. It makes a great sammich with a blob of hummus wrapped up in a nice squishy pita. Dammit! Now I gotta go buy a jar of tahini!

That sounds delicious.

I gotta imagine it tasted much, much better fresh. I have the package as part of a gift basket from Melissa's. We've used up everything but this stuff, because I haven't known what to do with it.

Ah, the Palestinian dudes...I haven't seen them in years. I never got any of their numbers, just used to show up and play football with them. Those were fun times

My favourite salad is a typical one we have around here (Sicily), with lettuce, smoked herring, oranges and green tail onions...yum!

 

[MJ5150]

I usually prefer my salads to have cucumbers, onions, cheese, and sunflower seeds. On some occasions, peas as well.

Don't skimp on the olive oil!

I like pine nuts.

 

[MJ5150]

Yes, I find those desirable as well. I find when I am dining out getting pine nuts on a salad to be challenging. Some servers tell me it is not an option, and others look at me with a confused face like they don't know what I am asking for.

Maybe I should just pack around a baggie of pine nuts when we go out to eat.

Dude! It ROCKS! My Arabic mama used to feed me good!

I like to have mine tossed.

 

[Milk]

I really should have resisted that obvious "joke". I already feel regret.

That really sucks ***......

 

[Milk]

What you did there, i see it.

 

[MJ5150]

I have tried tabouli a few times. It looked good, I like all of the ingredients, but I found it to be not very good. Maybe I need to make it from scratch.

[Selta]

Yay!! Way to go buddy. Spin away. We love ours.

I used to only eat iceberg lettuce, but thankfully my wife showed me some better options. I don't really like iceberg either anymore.

-Mike

I can't stand iceberg either. Seems to be all you get when you order a salad at most chain restaurants though, and they try to play it up in the description...
"With lush, juicy, tasty iceberg lettuce"

 

[Papa Dangerous]

Spinach, arugula, black pepper, garlic, feta cheese or bleu cheese crumbles and a light dash of olive oil.

 

[Jazz Ad]

I am a lettuce lover, I hardly ever have a meal without it.

My favorites are romaine, green oak leaf, and escarole. If you can get some, dandelion is fantastic.
In winter, endives and mache are the best around here.
When you want some variety, aragula, spinach and watercress are good for a change.
Frisee is phenomenal cooked with potatoes and bacon.

Really not a fan of Bibb. Oh and iceberg needs to vanish from earth. It is an insult to the deliciousness of lettuce.

 

[ZenG]

El Gecko:- Todd Hoffman should eat salads with bacon daily.....just to get the practise in.....

 

[slobake]

Lettuce, roasted beets, celery, avcado, grape tomatoes, goat cheese, and walnuts is one of my favorites.

I like my roasted beets a little burnt. Mmmmm. Crunchy caramelized root vegetables........
