Well, yes and no. I think it's hard to make *one* small salad, but
making a series of small salads can be accomplished by dipping into
one's stores of chopped/sliced/etc. ingredients each mealtime and
tossing them into a bowl.

Personally, I've become enamored of the "leafless" salad -- all the
goodies but no lettuce. I particularly like chopped tomato, avocado,
red/orange/yellow pepper, and cucumber with a homemade vinaigrette.
