CALIFORNIA ROLL SALAD

A delicious, light, spicy salad, excellent for summer cooking! A perfect side to any grilled Asian-style dishes. Wasabi paste may be used instead of the powder if it is more convenient. If you discover you have made the dressing too spicy, adjust by adding more mayonnaise.

CALIFORNIA SALAD



California Salad image

My sister-in-law made this salad for a family dinner just before my husband and I were married. In a hurry I wrote the recipe down. I've shared this recipe often through the years of our marriage. Recently at a dinner, my SIL asked if I made this recipe often. I replied that yes I did and every year I have to make California Salad. The look on her face was priceless and her reply was "I thought I gave you this recipe years ago!". After visiting on this topic further, we discovered I had abbreviated cauliflower to Calif. Salad thus it's name. I hope you enjoy!

ONE CALIFORNIAN'S FAVORITE SALAD



One Californian's Favorite Salad image

If you like avocado, mandarin oranges, and raw sunflower seeds... well, give this a try! A typical native Californian, I love to create experimental salads; this one has gotten thumbs up from family and guests alike over the years, so I hope fellow Recipezaarians will enjoy it, too. We've particularly found it to be a nice complement to Mexican meals. Note: you can use any kind of salad greens you like, but IMHO, it's not really a Californian salad if *iceberg* is the only lettuce used! Just kidding -- the important thing is to make it how you like it, of course. Bon appetit.
