Start with a bed of mixed greens then add:
grilled eggplant and peppers and toasted pine nuts
coat 2, 1" thick piece of chevre (soft goats cheese) with finely chopped pine nuts or pecans and brown on both side just long enough to add color and get the inside a little melty. Place on top of the salad.
whisk together 1Tbs olive oil, 2 Tbs white balsamic vinegar, pinch tsp thyme, 1 clove crushed garlic and salt and pepper to taste. drizzle on top and YUM!

Here are some Asian-inspired salad recipes, no pork or shrimp!
Rice Salad with Wasabi Dressing
Dressing
2 to 3 teaspoons wasabi powder or paste
1 tablespoon soy sauce
¼ cup rice vinegar
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon cracked white peppercorns
½ teaspoon grated lemon zest
Salad
3 green onions
1 sweet red pepper
1 small cucumber, peeled
2 cups cooked white or brown rice
For the dressing, if using wasabi powder, mix it with 1 teaspoon warm water and let stand 10 minutes. Combine wasabi, soy sauce, vinegar, sesame oil, sugar, peppercorns, and lemon zest in large mixing bowl and whisk until smooth.
For the salad, thinly slice green onions on the diagonal. Core, seed, and dice red pepper. Cut cucumber in half lengthwise and use melon baller to scoop out seeds. Cut cucumber widthwise into crescent-shaped slices. Add vegetables and rice to dressing and toss well.
Makes 4 servings.

Try a layered salad on a plate or platter:
Start with your favorite greens,
add mushrooms, bacon, cheese, turkey strips or chunks, etc
top with pumpkin or sunflower seeds, watercress or beansprouts
drizzle with homemade dressing:
combine olive oil and choice of vinegar (don't use malt--bleech) and enjoy!
