Salads

Salads

Salads come in a variety of forms from your basic lettuce to jiggly Jello to creamy egg, ham or tuna salads. Salads can have protein in them such as meat or seafood, or just vegetables. They can even have grains like couscous or rice. And they can be served hot or cold. See how versatile salads can be? Fun Food Holiday: May is National Salad Month.
