What to accompany a salad?
Discussion
I'm living at my brothers house while hes away for 2 weeks (its hugeeee and all mine! 
) Rather then eating all the unhealthy crap i usually do, I've filled the fridge with fruit and veg. Mixed salads, carrots, cabbage, mixed peppers, grapes, strawberrys, maderins, plums, bananas, apples etc.
I'll be doing a big fat ceaser salad with some grilled chicken tonight, but for tomorrow, what else can I cook to go with the salady bits? I dont want to have chicken every night this week!
Cheers.

Get some good tuna in olive oil, Taste the difference that sort of thing.
Boiled eggs cut into halves or quarters and covered in in mayo.
French Beans and you have some sort of Salad Nicoise.
Parma Ham and Mozzarella also go well together.
Failing that, get a Pork pie with egg and cover in Salad Cream.

I often make a big plate of salad leaves, fresh herbs, sliced tomatoes, blanched green beans, etc and top it with things like...
- Frazzled bacon
- Mushrooms fried in butter with garlic
- Goats cheese melted under the grill on thick slices of toasted ciabatta
- Chicken livers pan fried with red onion and a splash of balsamic vinegar at the end
- Salmon marinated in grated ginger, crushed garlic, soy sauce, sesame oil, chopped chilli and then grilled.
If you've got enough flavour in the herbs plus nice ripe tomatoes, then you shouldn't need extra dressing, although I sometimes sprinkle a bit of balsamic vinegar over.
