Strawberry SALAD??????

Question

I want to make a strawberry salad with these ingredients: mixed greens, strawberries, candied pecans, provel cheese, green onions...

Any suggestions on what to add/remove? I've made it before but didn't write down the recipe :o( It will be served with a poppyseed or a vinagrette dressing. Thanks!!

Answer 1

Kiwi or grapes would definetly go. I have something similar but with out the pecans.

Answer 2

Sounds delicious!  How about adding some real bacon bits, mandarin oranges or even bleu cheese??

I;ve actually made a salad very similar to this before with the poppy seeds, and then I used a raspberry vinaigrette for my dressing.

Good Luck! & Happy Cooking!

Answer 3

Go for it, it sounds good.

Answer 4

What i do is i make strawberry salad with strawberries and soak them in pineapple juice for an hour to make it tastier, i know that it is not what you asked for but i thought i would give you this to try..ps the salad sounds YUMMY:)

Answer 5

Honestly, I would not choose the poppy seed dressing, and I would ditch the green onions. Other than that, it sounds very good.
