Just look at these pictures at be inspired. You don't need a Recipe to make a great salad. Pick a few favorite Salad Dressings. Don't do the same one every night, because then your salads will become boring. You can make a homemade Dressing;
but really, there are a lot of good ones on the Market. Don't feel guilty by using one of them.
PIck out the Greens. Remember, Iceburg Lettuce has no nutritional value; but Romaine, Spinach, Escarole, & Kale does.
Same ingredients make a great Pasta Salad. Cook the pasta to Al Dente and Chill. Then, mix the ingredients.
Canned Vegetables (Beans, Corn, Beets) or Cooked Vegetables (Green Beans) or Raw Vegetables (Tomatoes, Peppers)

My son doesn't like any fruit, but I do: Cranberries, Strawberries, Raisins, Dried Fruit
Make it the meal: Add Grilled Salmon, Fish Filet, Chicken, Shrimp, etc.
