*Her book contains more that 100 recipes made from prepackaged greens found in your vegetable aisle with a few extra easy-to-find ingredients!

* When I first zoomed through her book I realized that she was right about the easy-to-find items! I was very impressed at how she took all those prepackaged greens and put together quick, easy meals.

*I believe every recipe contains a large, mouth-watering picture! I'm a visual learner so this pictures made it very easy to toss together the ingredients into a lovely meal/side dish for my family.

This is a cookbook that you wish your local stores carried right in the aisle with the prepacked greens! This would be great business for Jennifer, of course, but also for the grocery and the customers!
She pointed out that these prepackaged salads have changed the way we eat salad. It is wonderful to pick up a bag of Fresh Herb Salad that includes such items as royal red oak, lolla rose to little gem and frisee! They are perfectly bagged and offer you a variety that most would not normally be able to toss together with what is found in local stores. I live in a tiny town of 6,000 so I know this for a fact!

What a great recipe book!

I received this book as a gift a year and a half ago and have since bought about a half dozen of Simply Salads to give to my friends. Particularly inspirational in creating summer meals.

I love this book!

Okay, so I don't usually get so excited about cookbooks, but I have to say...I'm totally in LOVE with this book! I'm trying to incorporate salad as a main dish at least once a week so I purchased this book with the hope that I would get some ideas. First of all, the book by itself is beautiful. A full page picture is included with each recipe. I have to say that I enjoyed just flipping through and earmarking potential dishes. The ingredients are manageable (not too many and nothing crazy). Tonight I prepared seared salmon over mixed greens and all I have to say is "yay me!" I really impressed myself. I even burned the pecans and it still tasted amazing. So even if tonight's dish turns out to be the only good one out of the bunch, it was still an excellent purchase. This book is a must have!

Salads are one entrée I think I could live off of. There are just so many ways to make a salad that I think it is impossible to get sick of. Now don't get me wrong I am not a vegetarian, but I do love vegetables and I think in my past life I was a rabbit!

The book Simply Salads by Jennifer Chandler has become one of my favorite cookbooks. It has more than 100 delicious recipes all made from lettuce and a few easy-to-find ingredients. I love just how simple they are and that there is even recipes for salad dressings. Oh and many of the recipes even include adding meat!

Now I can prepare awesome salads both as side dishes and main entrees. I have even received compliments on how the salads look too good to eat! I also love to there are more than fifty different combinations of lettuces, packed in just the right size to choose from and experiment with! I think my favorite is the Balsamic Strawberry Salad, which is super easy and delicious! I highly recommend this book to anyone looking to add more "green" to their kitchen meals, even if you are not normally a lettuce eater!

I was given this book to review. This review is 100% my opinion and has not been edited or reviewed by anyone. I was not compensated in any other way for this product review.

Long gone are the days when people created their salads by purchasing a head of iceberg lettuce and a head or romaine, cutting up a tomato and a boiled egg and adding some wishbone dressing. Today anyone can create a delicious gourmet salad by picking up one of the hundreds of bagged salad mixes available and adding ingredients to create masterpieces such as:

Mandarin Chicken Salad with Toasted Sesame Vinaigrette Classic Caesar Salad with Herb Croutons Spinach Salad with Roasted Cherry Tomatoes

Each salad has dressing recommendations and recipes, menu ideas, and nutritional information. The book contains recipes for more than 100 salads and dressings.
