User post: A hearty side salad even kids will love!

user

I'm always looking for new green salads to serve at dinner, something besides lettuce with Ranch dressing! My kids, ages 9, 7, 5 and 3, have really been cleaning the salad bowl out lately!

I had this idea the other day at the grocery store after I saw that cauliflower was on sale for 99 cents a head and gathered up the rest of the ingredients:


                  
                                                    1 bu
nch of romaine lettuce (or I this time I used a bagged Spring mix since it was on sale too!)
1 head of cauliflower, washed and broken into small pieces
1 cup of trail mix, mine was organic sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, almond, raisins, dates and dried apple

Layer in a bowl and top with a low fat Poppy Seed dressing. Toss it well and serve.


My kids fought over the last serving!
