I like to put chicken, red onions, roma tomatoes, shredded low-fat mozerella cheese, thin sliced carrots, a squirt of lime juice, sun-dried tomatoe sauce or vinegrate, long green onions, green/yellow/red bell peppers, spinach, a hint of powdered parmesean cheese, peas, broccoli in my salad. The chicken can be cold. You can get those packets of cold, already cooked chicken. I like the southwest flavored chicken or the honey roasted.

A noodle or pasta salad with celery and ham added and light salad dressing will do just fine, you can even chill it so it will stay fresh longer.
My mom used to make this awesome meat salad, she would take a cut of meat similar to the one you use for roast beef and sealed it quickly by just broiling it in a very hot pan with some oil, then she would allow it to cook in the oven and once cool, slice it into small cubes, slice some boiled potatoes into small cubes, slice sweet cucumbers and fresh celery into very small pieces, add some capers and cubed cheese, one that has a strong flavor, All of the ingredients mentioned in roughly the same amounts except for the capers, then she would prepare enough vinaigrette using olive oil, balsamic vinegar, fresh ground pepper, mustard and some worcestershire. She would put all the ingredients in a bowl, pour in the vinaigrette and toss gently to coat everything thoroughly. I remember her putting it into the fridge for at least four to five hours. It keeps really well, you need nothing except some rye bread to eat it with. Try it and it will become a family favorite for years to come.

2 cans (16 oz each) pinto beans
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
10 slices bacon, fried very crispy, and crumbled

PREPARATION:
Make up the cornbread, cool. Stir together salad dressing mix, sour cream and mayonnaise until blended; set aside. Combine tomatoes, bell peppers and onions. Toss gently. Crumble 1/2 of the cornbread into a large bowl.
Top with half each of beans, tomato mixture, cheese, bacon, corn and dressing mixture. Repeat layers. Cover and chill for at least 3 hours. When ready to serve, stir the whole mess together!
This is also great without ranch dressing package mix. Plus, you may add any veggies you want.

Veggie salads with oil and vinegar dressing might be the easiest to make. Just remember, mayonaise has eggs too.

this one is good. no eggs and no mayonaise. since the amounts of each ing. will vary according to taste and quantity made, i go by taste.
quarter a head of cabbage. thinly slice each quarter. put in bowl. add some oil. (enough to lightly coat the cabbage) add white vinegar to taste. toss or shake. take some salad (reg. green and pimento olives) olives or thinly sliced green pimento stuffed olives. add to taste. cover+ chill. shake covered bowl before serving
