Hi all,

My DH is having a pot luck christmas lunch at work and they told his
department they have to bring the salads. I'm sure someone is going to make
the usual pasta salad. I'd like something original, different, or gourmet.
What are some good salad recipes to bring for pot luck?

Thanks again,
SPOONS

Check out the pomegranate-fennel salad under the "Anyone screw up yet?"
thread.

Italian Vegetable Salad (raw veg in italian dressing):

<http://www.rahul.net/clb/recipes/vegsalad.txt>

Great for large dinners or potlucks. Serves 6-8.


Combine the following fresh veggies:

2 cups broccoli florets
2 cups califlower florets
1 cup sliced mushrooms
1 red bell pepper, diced
1 large carrot, sliced thin


with 1 cup pitted black olives (sliced ok) and 1 6 oz. or
larger jar of marinated artichoke hearts (quartered).

Marinate with 2/3 cup vinagrette or Italian dressing and
artichoke marinade. Cover and chill several hours.

At serving time, add:

1 large chopped and seeded tomato, or some halved cherry toms
1 medium avacado, diced.

This is pretty in a glass bowl (my mom uses her trifle bowl).

N.B. feel free to experiment - the original recipe (from Better
Homes and Gardens) had 1 1/2 cup cooked shell macaroni, and no
bell peppers.
