Salad
Hawaiian Chicken Salad
This is wonderful served on croissants or on a bed of lettuce. It also makes a nice appetizer served in miniature phyllo shells.
Roasted Red Pepper Vinaigrette
This is great over salad greens and excellent with fish; you can also use it as a light veggie dip. I recommend roasting fresh red bell peppers, but if time doesn’t allow, substitute a 14-ounce jar of roasted red peppers, drained, adding 1 teaspoon of sugar to ensure sweetness.
Balsamic Vinaigrette
This dressing is especially good on tossed greens with tomatoes, red onion, and crumbled blue cheese.
