An Easy Dinner Salad Recipe

Here is a very easy and simple dinner salad recipe that I threw together last evening with great success. I made the salads in individual serving bowls because my husband is on a weight loss program. This is the only way I can really count the calories for him and help to keep him on track. But, if I didn't have to do it this way, I would throw everything together in one big bowl. The recipe is easy to adjust with what you have on hand, so the sky is the limit. It would be a great side dish for a crowd because it can grow depending on the number that you need to feed. I love salads like this, I hope you will as well. Blessings...

Recipe:
4 cups torn romaine lettuce
2 sliced green onions
3 ripe strawberries, sliced into bite-sized pieces
1/2 orange, segments chopped
1/4 avocado, chopped
3-4 tablespoons poppy seed dressing

Divide ingredients into two bowls and top with dressing.

Recipe can be multiplied to fit your families need, this quantity served two with only meat served along side.

Tip: I purchased Ken's Steak House Lite Poppy Seed Dressing for the first time last week and we really liked it. So, if you don't have a favorite, you might try this brand.
