When I received a copy of Patricia Wells' Salad as a Meal back in the early (and still quite chilly) spring, I filed it away on my shelf.

It's time for a week of cool, meal-worthy salads. Enter to win a copy of the book here!Winchester, MA: Excellent Frisee aux Lardons at Parsons Table

Vicky had bought a head of romaine lettuce, walnuts, and gorgonzola cheese to make one of her favorite salads the day before, so she was determined to serve it for dinner last night.

It's just a mix of pineapple chunks, mini marshmallows, and pecans in a base of pistachio pudding.Los Angeles: 14 Salads to Eat Right Now

My wife loves salad dressing, particularly the that I keep in constant supply in a squeeze bottle in the fridge.

Here's a little trick I devised to make sure that never happens again: just write the recipe directly on the squeeze bottle.Seriously Asian: Green Papaya
If you've only ever enjoyed the sweet, juicy flesh of ripe papaya, you might not be familiar with the fruit in its unripened staged. Green papaya flesh has a foamy texture and a mild, almost tasteless flavor. But if you massage shredded green papaya with salt and sugar, a preparation you might also use for daikon or carrots, the papaya flesh becomes sweet and crispy, with a mild, cucumber-like flavor.25 Great Recipes for Camping
