What can i do if i HATE! salads?

Question

No matter what i do i can't eat a salad. I've tried numerous times, but they just dont seem to be for me. i know it has everything to do with the dressing but i don't really know of any good ones. I'm not a huge fan of ranch and i love things to be a little sweeter... can u help?

Answer 1

try honey mustard for dressing. it's relatively sweet,

Answer 2

just put things that u like in it....like i like shrimp, ill make the shrimp fried or baked or whatever and put like oranges or something in it to make it look and taste better......im telling u ...try it

Answer 3

Well, how about picking a salad apart to determine what you "do" like.  Do you like cucumbers? tomatoes? carrots? radishes? Salad is just a name. Create your own using only what you like. Use a caesar dressing, italian, or thousand island as a dip.  Experiment at home. Pile on some bacon bits, sunflower seeds, and croutons!  Gradually start ordering salads your way at restaurants. ***Always order the dressing on the side, so you control how much to use, and how to use; as a dip for the veggies, or a little on top.  Sometimes just a little fresh squeezed lemon juice works.  Be crazy...and creative.  Give it a try.  Enjoy!!!

Answer 4

Don't order one!

Answer 7

Catalina is usually a sweeter dressing. French is also very good! It's my personal favorite.

Maybe also you like non-creamy types. Have you tried more oily types like Italian, oil and vinegar, etc

Answer 8

Try just eating different kinds of vegetables, cooked in different ways. You don't have to get your veggies just in a salad.

Answer 9

No, sorry, in fact I like sour/salty/no taste foods. I used to hate salads too but one day I tried one and now I love them! What you hate now may be what you love later and vice versa.

Answer 11

Answer 12

Just don't eat salad.  Pretty simple.

Answer 13

I used to really hate salads, too. Now I eat them sometimes.

It's NOT all about the dressing.

It starts with what's in the salad. Is it just a bowl of iceberg lettuce? Boring. Is it a bunch of vegetable you don't really like? Choose veggies you prefer.

Why do you want to eat salads anyway, if you don't like them?

You don't HAVE TO eat salads; you just need to get some veggies and fruits in every day. Eat cooked veggies in stir-fries, or curries or pizzas. Eat cole slaw or carrot-pineapple salad. Eat fresh fruit.

Dressing is what makes a salad fattening. If you're going to eat salad to stay slim, you have to skip the dressing or eat diet dressing or use just a bit of it. Personally, I prefer grated cheese to dressing - lots of cheese, and I'm fine.

You can add fruit to a salad, you know. Baby spinach leaves with red onions and grape tomatoes and raspberries or tangerine slices and bacon bits and chopped hard-boiled eggs - yummmm. Taco salads. Curried chicken salads with grapes...

Answer 14

Try Italian dressing. Maybe that's more your thing. Start off with a little lettuce, iceberg to start, even though its not the healthiest. Then move on to adding more veggies. I love Italian dressing.

Answer 15

Then don't eat salads.

Answer 16

I am right there with you on salads.. I hate them. I want to like them.. they look good.. but I hate them. If I have to order one I get Cesaer Salad with Ranch Dressing...Extra Dressing.. I know you are probably saying, "How the heck can you get Cesaer Salad with Ranch?" Well Cesaer leaves are the dark green ones.. I hate the Cesaer Dressing so I always order the darker leaves with Ranch. I think it goes down better.
