How do you like your salad (besides tossed)?

Build your salad by selecting up to seven options from above. I realize that most normal, sane people put some sort of dressing on salads (including olive oil, lemon juice, and/or vinegar), so I'm not including them among the options. I think I've covered must items. If you say "other," explain your work. Let's get weird.

Mine:

red leaf
spinach
chicken or sardines
green olives
onion
tomato
cucumber

people that put fruit in their salads with savory items are freaks

I like Spike's, but I wouldn't oppose adding (red) onion, bell pepper, carrot. Maybe even a bean or 3. But they seem like a waste of an option if we're only allowed 7.

Going a different route, broccoli salad w/smoked salmon or bacon is bomb.

My typical go-to is:

Lettuce
Tomato
Croutons (garlic and butter)
Mini cucumbers
Green and Yellow peppers
Onion
Salt & Pepper
Rotating protein (hard boiled eggs, tuna, cold cuts)
Non fat Feta cheese

Lite Creamy Ceasar dressing

Radishes should be an option

Sounds like this would be good for puking too. And weight loss?

I’d add more probably, but wanted to get in the top 7 yeah.
