I am looking for an easy and refreshing appetizer for Shabbos Lunch. Maybe something fruity or a salad - but only a salad that I can use the prewashed iceberg lettuce. I can't deal with checking...
Thanks!

I make this salad a LOT and it looks so appetizing and pretty to begin the meal with:

place lettuce at bottom of plate.
On top of lettuce place angel hair pasta
on top of angel hair place strips of cold cuts (I use corn beef & turkey= bec. I like to use two different colors for contrast)
on top of cold cuts- sprinkle some (bread) croutons.

I place in a little (plastic) shnaps cup dressing on each individual plate. This way everyone uses as much or as little dressing as they wish.

Salad dressing recipe I can get if you need, but it's basically a garlic/mayonnaise type dressing with various seasonings.

It's easy to make and looks great!

My family loves this salad!

Iceberg Lettuce Mix
grape tomatoes sliced in half
cucumbers
strips of cold chicken cutlets (either grilled or fried)
salad croutons

Mix equal amounts of sugar and vinegar with
Mayonaise, Garlic powder and a little Barbeque sauce.

Enjoy

Do you mean instead of the fish or instead of cholent?

Did you want to go: ptcha, egg salad, babganoush, or half a grapefruit with a cherry?

Chopped liver?

Tell me more what you need.

How about the Euro salad? you can use the iceberg lettuce mix, add mango, kiwi, strawberries, honey glazed almonds & craisins & then there's a delicious dressing. Everyone that tasted my salad loves it! Let me know if u need the exact receipe.

mom 22 I make my own babaganoush--really easy--
1--place 2 large eggplants in a 9 by 13 pan
2--poke holes with fork
3-put it in your oven on broil for 1 hour
4--turn over, poke holes and broil 45 mnts
5--let cool bit
6-- scoop out the insides with a spoon into a strainer
7--VERY IMPORTANT let the eggplant drain overnight--the juice is bitter
8-- mix with mayo salt and fresh garlic
its a hit

Yup I sure do make my own!

I have tried every preparation method under the sun (baking, frying, etc.) but this one is the best:

You prickle the eggplant with a fork a few times.

Nuke for 8-12 mintues, dep. on size.

Crunch up by fork or with food processor with some mayo, salt, and garlic to taste.

Eat and enjoy!

maybe she means microwave?

I do mine on top of the gas ring. It messes up your ring, but tastes fantastic.

I made gazpacho (cold tomato soup with lots of veggies) last Shabbos. We served it for both meals. It tastes best when left to sit overnight, so I make it on Thursday afternoon. Very refreshing for the summer!
