| I used to make a plainer version of the cucumber salad with just the cukes, onions and tomatoes with oil and vinegar, salt and pepper. But it has evolved - sometimes I add olives (black or green) and/or bell pepper of any color. |

| That looks delicious! My favorite salad is a grilled chicken/fruit salad with raspberry vinigarette Salad greens (I like the garden variety, baby spinnach and greens) Fresh fruit (sliced or diced): Mango, Strawberries, Blueberries, or canned mandarin oranges, any one or a variety works. Slivered Almonds Sliced cherry tomatoes Croutons (I prefer caesar salad flavor) Grilled Chicken slices Raspberry vinigarette Bacon bits (optional)

I was also talking to Lisa about one of my faves sunomono salad. Japanese cucumber salad (I know Roni knows what it is, but for the other ladies maybe not?) Look at this fancy one I found with monkfish liver on top yum!!! And an easy way to turn it into a low fat filling entree salad, top the cucumber salad on a bed of cold rice noodles or vermicelli, and add shrimp, octopus, or crab and daikon, carrot, sesame seeds, maybe some chili peppers, yum!!

| Yes! that's the cabbage one right? Man I haven't had that in years! There was this restaurant we used to go to when we were kids, Tokyo Lobby. It's kind of gone to hell a few decades ago, but back in the 80s and 90s that place was the ish! Like how some people think Benihana is fancy, we thought this place was fancy LOL. They gave you the cabbage salad first. My lil bro liked to put sugar on his. =/
