What kind of fresh herbs do you use in fresh salads? I just cut some Caraway from my very small her garden and am going to try it in my lettuce salad, but would love some other ideas for great herbs that you use!

Grasshopper, I love to add fresh dill, fennel and rosemary to my salads. Sometimes oregano and parsley are great, too. There are also many edible flowers that make salads sing. Experiment! Enjoy!

I will have to try those! I think I have even planted some rosemary in my garden! Thanks Cobrateacher!

You're welcome. Your post made me want a salad, and I put in just about everything! It was great!

Yes, Like I told Dragon, my husband and I are trying to eat healthier these days so I cut up different types of lettuce and store it in a Zip lock bag and in another one I cut up different veggies for toppings. It is like having fast food only it is healthy!

I am lazy. I'm in such a hurry most times that I want everything right there in the salad dressing, I haven't time to be picky!

My husband and I are trying to eat healthier these days so new tastes are a plus! I have been cutting up the lettuce and storing it in zip lock bags and also have a zip lock bag filled with veggie toppings, like radish, mushroom, green onion, broccoli and such. It makes it more like a fast food if it is already prepared. When we get the munchies we just grab the 2 baggies and make a quick salad!
