炎炎夏日，正是吃沙拉的最佳季节。五彩缤纷的各式沙拉，做起来轻松，吃起来爽口。

为了健康，我把油和糖都减到很少，甚至完全不用，更清爽。

希腊沙拉 Greek Salad

这款经典沙拉是我家常做的。特别清爽。番茄，黄瓜，橄榄，feta，还有大蒜都是不可缺少的重要用料。

原方子是Dave Lieberman 的Greek Salad 。

和我们在希腊吃过的味道一样呢，应该很正宗啊.

Ingredients

For the dressing:

• 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

• 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar

• 1 lemon, juiced

• 2 cloves garlic, smashed with the side of your chef's knife

• 1 teaspoon dried oregano

• 3 pinches salt

• 10 to 15 grinds black pepper

For the salad:

• 2 to 3 hearts romaine lettuce

• 1 English cucumber, peeled, cut in 1/2 lengthwise, then cut into 1/2-inch chunks

• 3 vine-ripened tomatoes (about 3/4-pound), cored and cut into 1/2-inch chunks

• 1/2 red onion, very thinly sliced

• 1/2 cup pitted kalamata olives, coarsely chopped

• 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese

To make the dressing: Combine all the ingredients in a resealable container and shake vigorously. Refrigerate until ready to serve, and then bring to room temperature before tossing salad.

Assemble the salad: cut off any dark tips and the bitter white bottoms from the romaine leaves. Cut the lettuce into 1-inch strips and place in a bowl that is large enough to hold all the salad ingredients comfortably. Scatter cucumbers, tomatoes, red onion, olives, and feta over the top. You can prepare the salad up to a few hours in advance. Cover it with a moist paper towel and refrigerate until 30 minutes before serving.

Guacamole Salad

大力推荐这个沙拉。有小番茄的甜，黄椒的脆，黑豆的软，鳄梨的糯，加上一点点辣，酸，正正好。真的很好吃喔。

这是 Ina Garten 的方子。

Ingredients

• 1 pint grape tomatoes, halved

• 1 yellow bell pepper, seeded and 1/2-inch diced

• 1 (15-ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained

• 1/2 cup small diced red onion

• 2 tablespoons minced jalapeno peppers, seeded (2 peppers)

• 1/2 teaspoon freshly grated lime zest

• 1/4 cup freshly squeezed lime juice (2 limes)

• 1 teaspoon kosher salt

• 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

• 1/2 teaspoon minced garlic

• 1/4 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper

• 2 ripe Hass avocados, seeded, peeled, and 1/2-inch diced

Directions

Place the tomatoes, yellow pepper, black beans, red onion, jalapeno peppers, and lime zest in a large bowl. Whisk together the lime juice, salt, black pepper, garlic, and cayenne pepper and pour over the vegetables. Toss well.

Just before you're ready to serve the salad, fold the avocados into the salad. Check the seasoning and serve at room temperature.

Corn Salad

还是 Ina Garten的好方子。这个玉米沙拉特别清甜爽口，尤其是加了新鲜的basil。一样原料都不能少啊。不过不喜欢生洋葱的可以省去或者减少些。

Ingredients

• 5 ears of corn, shucked

• 1/2 cup small-diced red onion (1 small onion)

• 3 tablespoons cider vinegar

• 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

• 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

• 1/2 cup julienned fresh basil leaves

Directions

In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the corn for 3 minutes until the starchiness is just gone. Drain and immerse it in ice water to stop the cooking and to set the color. When the corn is cool, cut the kernels off the cob, cutting close to the cob.

Toss the kernels in a large bowl with the red onions, vinegar, salt, and pepper. Just before serving, toss in the fresh basil. Taste for seasonings and serve cold or at room temperature.

Carrot Salad

这个也很简单.萝卜用food processor刨丝,加新鲜柠檬汁,Dijon mustard,盐和干红莓(dried cranberries),最好还加点slivered almonds。冰镇一下。

Watermelon Feta Salad

甜甜的西瓜也是沙拉的好原料。

原方子是Ina Garten的,我稍稍改动了一点.

Ina Garten’s original recipe

这个沙拉酱是用

• 1/4 cup freshly squeezed orange juice

• 1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (2 lemons)

• 1/4 cup minced shallots (1 large)

• 1 teaspoon kosher salt

• 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

最后把西瓜,feta, 和新鲜薄荷叶一起混和在菜叶里,浇沙拉酱就好了。要马上吃不然就叶子软了。

Grape Feta Salad

同样的，甜葡萄和feta的sharp口感完美平衡味道。

original recipe

5 tablespoons balsamic vinegar (the web version recipe used white wine vinegar)

5 tablespoons fresh orange juice

2 tablespoons extravirgin olive oil

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

8 cups gourmet salad greens

2 cups seedless red grapes,halved

1/2 cup (2 ounces) crumbled feta cheese

1. Combine first 6 ingredients in a small bowl;stir well with a whisk. Combine remaining ingredients in a large bowl. Drizzle dressing over salad;toss well.

我还加了一些核桃,嗯,很棒的组合。

Salmon Salad

别看这个菜其貌不扬啊，内在美可是很震撼呢。

还是用 Ina Garten’s recipe。

Ingredients

• 2 pounds cooked salmon, chilled

• 1 cup small-diced celery (3 stalks)

• 1/2 cup small-diced red onion (1 small onion)

• 2 tablespoons minced fresh dill

• 2 tablespoons capers, drained

• 2 tablespoons raspberry vinegar

• 2 tablespoons good olive oil

• 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

• 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Directions

Break the salmon into very large flakes, removing any skin and bones, and place the salmon in a bowl. Add the celery, red onion, dill, capers, raspberry vinegar, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Season, to taste. Mix well and serve cold or at room temperature.

Tuna Salad

Ina Garten’s recipe

超级霹雳大推荐！这个tuna salad是我家大小的最爱，大人孩子都抢着吃。特别谢谢小蝌蚪大师回答我的疑问。冰冻的tuna也可以不用全熟。

Ingredients

• Good olive oil

• 1 pound very fresh tuna steak, 1-inch thick

• Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

• 1 lime, zest grated

• 3 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice (2 limes)

• 1/2 teaspoon wasabi powder

• 1 teaspoon soy sauce

• 5 dashes hot sauce (recommended: Tabasco)

• 1 firm, ripe Hass avocado, medium-diced

• 1/4 red onion, chopped

• 1 tablespoon minced scallion, white and green parts

• 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds

Directions

Heat a charcoal grill with hot coals. Brush the grill with oil.

Brush both sides of the tuna with olive oil and sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. Cook the tuna over the hot coals for about 2 1/2 minutes on each side. Remove to a plate. The tuna should be seared on the outside and raw inside. Allow to cool and cut into cubes.

(If you don't want to heat a grill, you can sear the tuna in a dry saute pan over high heat. Heat the pan for 2 minutes, add the tuna steaks and cook for 1 1/2 to 2 minutes on each side until seared on the outside and still raw inside.)

For the dressing, whisk together the lime zest, lime juice, wasabi powder, soy sauce, hot sauce, 2 teaspoons kosher salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl. Toss the avocado in the dressing and then add the tuna, red onion, scallion, and sesame seeds.

1. In a large bowl, toss together the spinach and strawberries.

2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the oil, vinegar, sugar, paprika, sesame seeds. Pour over the spinach and strawberries, and toss to coat.

Peach Spinach Salad

Shaved Carrot and Pear Salad with Curry Vinaigrette
