In the summer, we love “big messy salads.” I will have at least one protein but usually every workable leftover protein laid out, along with any other thing that could conceivably work in a salad. I try to keep a dozen hard boiled eggs on hand (Instant Pot 5-5-5 method) and everyone gets to pick what goes on their bed of salad greens. Kids tend to evolve from iceberg and baby carrots and cold rotisserie chicken to using it to try new things like falafel or smoked salmon or beets or grilled corn or strawberries in a salad. I have learned to love hummus on my salad. I use Jamie Oliver’s jam jar salad dressing recipe and we have a 2 c. salad dressing shaker now for this meal.
