Carrot and raisin salad w/mayo
cold peas, carrots, and parsnips cubed w/mayo
cucumber salad (cukes marinated in rice vinegar, salt, and sugar; optional onions)
pear, avocado, pecan, spinach salad w/vinaigrette
marinated mushroom salad
That's what is at the top of my head... |
Thanks! Do you have amounts for the cole slaw with oil, salt and lime juice?
And how do you make the marinated mushroom salad? (Thanks for reminding me to call my sis for a delicious buttom mushroom salad made with soy sauce, scallions... will post if you request)

I didn't see anyone mention Euro salad - romaine lettuce with fruit like strawberries and mango cubes, with glazed almonds and a sweetish dressing.
My mother makes a carrot apple salad on Pesach. It's more of a dessert than a side dish - grated apples and carrots, mix with sugar and orange, lemon or lime juice.
I know these have fruit in them, and are sweet - not sure if that's what you're looking for. |
Thanks!
In all honesty, I don't really go for fruits in my salads... but the Asian salad with oranges changed my mind... at least for that recipe. So I might just try some recipes that call for fruit... but they have to be at least somewhat salty as well (I like that sweet and salty taste.)

I love olive salad. I cut up fresh garlic cloves into small pieces and I mix it with sliced olives. Add a little bit of olive oil and some paprika. Mix together and enjoy!

mango and avocado salad is a pesach recipe. Just mangos, avocados, onion if you want and salt and lemon juice. lettuce would also probably go nicely in this.

Waldorf Salad (egg free version - no mayo) - -just apples, celery and walnuts (I actually leave those out too!) then add lemon juice, onion powder and a pinch of sugar and salt
Mushroom salad: 1/4 muchrooms, add balsamic vinegar, water (2 part vinegar to 1 part water), sugar (to your like of sweetness), salt and pepper and parsley (but I use oregano since I cant use parsley) - mix together and serve! Really yum!
Celeriac Slaw: peel and shred one med. sized celeriac (aka celery root). mix with salt, pepper and lemon juice, this keeps for at least a week
Beet salad: steam/roast beets in skins, cool so you can handle them. Rub off skins. Slice beets thinly. Add as much sliced onion as you want. Pour equal parts white vinegar and water over top. Add salt and pepper to taste. Add at least 1 Tbsp. sugar (to ofset the vinegar a bit) - or more if you like it sweeter. This keeps at least 2 weeks.
Sweet potato salad: roast whole sweet potato until almost done. Let cool. carfully remove peel. Cube SP. toss with mustard, lemon juice, maple syrup, cinnamon and mint. Very yum
Cabbage noodle salad: Cook vermicelli or other thin noodles according to package. Rinse with cold water once cooked. toss with red cabbage, scallions, vinegar, sugar, s+p. You can also add sesame and/or sliced almonds to this.
Tabouleh (w/o the tomato): cook couscous or bulgar or quinoa according to package. Once cooled toss with lemon juice, honey, mint, parsley (or oregano), salt and pepper. Add cubed cucumber for freshness. (you can also add tuna or chicken for protein)

Here goes...
Lemony Carrot Salad with Dill
Ingredients
• 2-3 cups grated carrots (I usually fill a 2 lb container 2/3 up, I don't pack it down) (I use the larger grating blade on the food processor or hand grater)
• 2 Tbsp lemon juice
• 1 Tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
• 1 small clove garlic, minced
• salt to taste (I use about 1 tsp coarse salt- use less if using table salt)
• 1/8 tsp coarse black pepper, optional (I usually leave this out)
• 1 Tbsp dried dill
• ½ bunch (3 stalks) scallions, sliced
Preparation
Whisk lemon juice, oil, garlic, salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Add carrots, dill and scallions; toss to coat. Chill until serving time.
Asian Edamame Salad
Ingredients
• 1 small red onion, thinly sliced
• 1/2 pkg. frozen soybeans (edamame), blanched according to pkg. directions either in microwave or pot
• 1 pkg. ready romaine lettuce
• 2 oranges, peeled & cut into chunks
• 1 Tbsp deli mustard (I use Dijon Mustard)
• 2 Tbsp sugar or sugar substitute equivalent to that amount
• 2 Tbsp soy sauce
• 1 Tbsp sesame oil
• ¼ cup oil
• 3 Tbsp rice wine vinegar
• 1 cube ginger
Preparation
Combine the red onion, soy beans, romaine lettuce and orange cubes in a large salad bowl.
In a measuring cup, combine the mustard, sugar, soy sauce, sesame oil, oil, rice wine vinegar and ginger. Mix well and pour dressing over salad.

Sounds great! If you have amounts, would be helpful... if not, I'll manage.

I don't have amounts, sorry!
However, I don't drench it in balsamic vinegar. Sometimes I add a bit of olive oil as well.
I just ate a bowl of it. . . it's hard for me to stop eating it.

It's based on a delicious tomato-free "ketchup" recipe that I found.
I use this in turkey sandwhiches for myself. I also use this sometimes in regular recipes for the whole family. Mixed in with other ingredients (like in a glaze that calls for ketchup among other things) dh can't even tell that it isn't the real stuff.
Tomato-Free "Ketchup"
Ingredients
1 (16 ounce) can jellied cranberry sauce
1 (16 ounce) can pear halves in natural juice, drained
1 (16 ounce) can sliced carrots, drained
1/2 cup white vinegar
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup white corn syrup (Kyro)
4 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon allspice
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
Directions
Process all ingredients in a blender until smooth, about 30 seconds.
Store in refrigerator.
I make a really good barbeque sauce from the above recipe (tastes even more real than the ketchup)
Barbeque Sauce
• 2 cups tomato-free ketchup
• 2 Tbsp red wine vinegar
• 2 Tbsp soy sauce
• 1 Tbsp brown sugar
• 1/8 tsp black pepper
Preparation
Combine all ingredients in a sauce pan. Bring to boil, stirring constantly. Reduce heat and simmer 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
This recipe yields approximately 2 cups of barbecue sauce.

Sounds great! Do you think this would work with a tehina dressing? I don't love mayo. |
Yes definitely! Probably even better (health wise and taste wise!)

These all look like good salads! I will have to make one of these.
I never heard of the nightshade vegetables. Just Googled, and it's interesting. I have been having some arthritis flare ups. I wonder if I should cut out potato?

You can try that. Good luck! (If you eat eggplant, cut that out first.)
