PJ'S COLD AND CRISP SALMON SALAD
"I made this summer salad from ingredients in my panty and fridge one day when was too hot to cook. It was cold and crisp. I could control salt and fats."
FOR THE SALAD:
1 package fresh spinach, cleaned and seems removed
1 (14.5 oz.) can no-salt DelMonte diced tomatoes, drained well
1 (16 oz.) can large pitted olives, drained very well and chopped
1 (1 lb.) can salmon, drained, cleaned, and broken into large pieces*
1 medium onion, sliced and separated into rings
Roquefort cheese (optional)
1 pkg garlic/herb croutons or French Bread
Everything but croutons/bread should be chilled.
In a large chilled salad bowl add the first four ingredients. Toss to mix. Add onion rings, Toss lightly. Plate. Top with croutons and roquefort cheese. Pass salad dressing.
*You could substitute broiled chicken breast for salmon, although I never tried it.
SALAD DRESSING
Olive oil
Dark red wine
Lemon juice
Lime juice
Worcestershire sauce
Granulated garlic
Pinch of sugar
Salt and pepper
Vinegar
Water
Make to your taste. I do not use a sweet dressing, nor one that is too sour. As I don't like vinegar I used it sparingly after all the other ingredients were added. I added a little water, too, so the dressing did not feel heavy on the palate.
