Here is a little tip: When you are squezing a lemon by hand, try to do a 'thumbs down' gesture. All the juice will pour down to where your thumb is pointed. I felt bad for that lemon, and had to write this :) By the way, that's some really juicy lemon, incredible!

[@radharcanna]

Salads have always been a mystery to me. Now I need to eat more vegetables for health reasons. I actually bought books of salad recipes! However, I ended up casting them aside as some of the ingredients were very exotic and hard to get. This video was what I needed. Simple ingredients and clear instructions. Now I can make my own variations and very cheaply. Thanks Jamie.

We can add boiled and roasted potatoes chunks , boiled eggs , tuna or smoked salmon and the salad becomes a full meal on its own,

This is the video i have been looking for. Straight forward. Thank you Jamie. This is the dressing we use in Lebanon for our Tabbouli..

Best video ever of Jamies! I've finally got it down---taking a salad to work everyday. A mixture of vegetables keeps in the refrig for the week (red pepper, carrots, cabbage, herbs, onions), as does the dressing, and cold cooked meat. In the a.m. add lettuce, vegetables, meat, dressing, toss, then ad nuts, pop plastic into the cooler to take to work. Yummy!

[@DavidBrown30]

This video is perfect for me! I am suffering from psoriasis and am only permitted to eat specific foods - mainly leafy vegetables. I have made salads before but could not enjoy them because they were wet and bland without good dressing. I learned here that you can make a good looking dressing from scratch that doesn't conflict with my strict diet. Great information!

[@andilove18]

I think I have psoriasis too. What diet are you following?

[@DavidBrown30]

andrea I'm following the John Pagano diet, but I'm a little too loose with it. Basically, you may eat anything other than fried foods, red meats, refined sugars, and processed foods. Stay focused on veggies (mainly green leafy ones) and everything should start healing up (but after several months...) Very hard depending on your current eating habits, but well worth it. I'm still fighting to go through everything.

I agree. I buy whole heads of kale and romaine lettuce and prep myself. By accident and out of necessity, I put together my own vegetable washer/storer which works quite efficiently. I always keep my own mix vinaigrette and use a 3/2/1 measure, oil/balsamic/water. I spice at will, directly into the salad before adding vinaigrette. Then toss thoroughly and it comes together beautifully. I vary my cheese but prefer feta. In my book, "Everything's betta with feta!" CHEERS!!! 🤓👍🏻

[@JamesCarmichael]

My favourite salad. Greens: Lettice, Kale and Spinach. Chopped tomato's, grated carrot, grated cucumber, Red Clover germinated sprouts, chopped raw mushrooms and chopped apple. Get some wakame seaweed and an orange. Squeeze the orange juice into a cup and soak the seaweed in it for about 30 seconds and grate the zest into it too. take the seaweed out and put it into the salad. Add a table spoon of olive oil to the orange juice and a pinch of pepper, mix and pour it over the salad. Put some flax seeds and crushed almonds on top and little slices of avocado too. Freakin lovely.
