Autumn Apple and Spinach Salad Usually when I make a salad to go with dinner, it is a combination of lettuce, carrots, cucumber, tomato, mushrooms, and sometimes avocado.

Cobb Salad This is such a simple meal to put together, but it has lots of flavor. Traditionally, Cobb Salad can be full of fat and calories, but in this version I use only a small amount of blue cheese, omit the bacon, and top it with a balsamic salad dressing that is much healthier [...]
