This cookbook has 100 salads organized by main ingredient (usually the protein.) The salads range from Thai to French, Italian and other types. Most are the "salades composees" or warm salads of arranged ingredients, suitable as entrees or first courses. If you want more vegetables in your family's diet or like to entertain in summer, these recipes will elevate your cuisine really easily and elegantly.The recipes are organized on the page with a good color photo of the plated final dish, and then the ingredients and a box with a color coded grid of type of ingredient: greens, protein, garnishes and dressing. You can go down the grid and see if it looks like something you'd want to make or if you have the ingredients to hand.There is a warm fig salad that looks really good. I already made the Thai chicken salad with lime and nuoc nam (fish sauce) dressing. Refreshing on a hot day. Antipasto salad, curried salads, all kinds of things that would work for bento box lunches or a really lovely dinner party.
