There always seems to be a new salad combination around the corner. Here are a few easy salads to make at home with Cotati’s ingredients:
Broccoli Salad
It’s a go-to salad for anyone for any occasion, from dinners to barbecues, to family gatherings. The best broccoli salads usually have additional ingredients such as bacon, red onion, sunflower seeds, and dried cranberries. Some recipes shy away from the typical leafy greens found in most salads in favor of broccoli being the main ingredient.
Chicken Salad
A well-known and much-loved appetizer before an entrée, it has become a mainstay among popular comfort foods. Chicken salad’s simple recipe gives creative freedom for a cook to add a multitude of ingredients, like parsley, green onions, celery, almonds, and Dijon mustard.
