That's just a salad. Not a really good one.

Tho' I don't like any cold pasta dishes including "pasta salad", I might
point out that it is neither expensive nor difficult to get the makings
for a salad for one at a supermarket salad bar.

For what they charge per ounce that can add up quickly.

But why bother... for about the same price (usually less) go to a
diner and be served a salad... and they will be happy to prepare a
salad to include/omit whatever... places like Friendly's, IHOP, and
the like will custom prepare salads... they'll even prepare salads to
go.
Anyway this is all moot, LJB has never said what she DOES want in her
salad (her idea of a salad is a ten scoop ice cream sundae with ALL
the toppings and a mountain of whipped cream, extra sprinkles too). I
think she's a psychopathic attention hog... people who constantly tell
everyone at every opportunity how they don't eat this or that and have
tons of allergies are typically those who eat anything and
EVERYTHING... they don't get to weigh 300 pounds by being picky eaters
and slouches at the trough.

But as I said, salad bars are few and far between here and they don't always
have what I want.

That statement alone is proof of how unsophisticated you are.
More does not always equate with "better"

I suppose it's a matter of taste. Immaculately fresh greens
with a well-made dressing is a WONDERFUL salad.

However, since salad is almost the only vegetable I
eat on a regular basis, I like to make sure I have at
least one of each color of vegetable in it, every chance
I get.

When I eat salad that is often the meal. So it needs to include some
protein and carbs as well.

Well, there you go. I eat salad as the meal about once a week, but
I have it as a side to the meat and starch nearly every day, or
sometimes
twice a day. We're each coming from completely different places.

Still, I enjoy a bed of romaine with grilled chicken and a balsamic
vinaigrette as a main dish salad. Simple and satisfying.

Julie isn't smart enough to be a troll. Actually she's an honest to
goodness pointy headed imbecile... out of all the possible dishes to
have a problem preparing a salad has to be by far the least
difficult... I have like a hundred geese munching on my lawn right now
and all those silly geese are doing salad easy peasy as you please.
Even a dumb bunny can do salad. LOL

Ain't that the truth. My MIL's bunnies prefer a salad of marigolds
and lettuce. Perfect salad and colorful too.
