Here's one that is different and mighty tasty.
Chopped Salad Recipe By : Houston Chronicle-7/22/98 Serving Size : 4
1 head iceberg lettuce -- cut in 1" cubes 1 1/2 cups diced yellow squash 1 1/2 cups diced zucchini 1 1/2 cups halved red grapes 16 cherry tomatoes -- cut in half 10 green olives -- coarsely chopped 2 tablespoons capers -- drained 1/2 cup roasted red-pepper strips, juices drained and reserved 4 anchovies, drained -- rinsed and minced 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice 1 teaspoon honey 1 teaspoon olive oil 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard 1 tablespoon reserved red-pepper liquid 1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
Combine lettuce, squash, zucchini, grapes, tomatoes, olives, capers, and red-pepper strips in large bowl. In a small bowl, combine anchovies, lemon juice, mustard, oil, honey, and red-pepper liquid. Whisk thoroughly. (Do not worry that dressing tastes acidic; it won't once it's in the salad.) Toss salad and dressing together and let stand at least 10 min. Sprinkle with Parmesan.
A huge plate of salad-3 cups-promises to fill you up. It's delicious and staves off hunger. To add a little protein and make a complete meal, toss in a few canned garbanzo beans or some diced chicken breast.
