I am trying to figure out how to make those fresh salads that you can buy at a salad bar. So you can choose from many different veggies that are fresh, but there are quite a few that have more preparation than just dicing them up.
How do they make the eggplant?
How do they do the beets?
(sweet potato, I assume they bake with oil and salt..... )
What other ideas do you have to throw into a salad?
Here are mine:
Lettuce (romaine/ iceberg)
tomatoes
cucumbers
peppers
purple onion
radish
stringbeans- fresh
bean sprouts
fresh parsley
proteins:
chickpeas
eggs
tuna
cheese
extras:
craisins
croutons
ANY other ideas???

The beets are roasted.

Thanks Ra mom, Anything to it, or just roast the beets with olive oil and salt and the same with the eggplant?
Any other ideas for foods I can add to the salads?
