Round Up: Main Salad Suppers

The warm weather has been craving for salads lately and I could easily enjoy a big salad as a main entree. Who says it needs to always stick to being a side dish? When it comes to salad, my favorite is salad will include a combination of a fruit, nuts, cheese and a protein of some sort. There's something about how those specific elements work so well - sweet, savory, crunchy, creamy. Now if you're a salad lover like me, here's 20 salads to check out! While not all include all four salad elements, you can certainly incorporate them in to round out the salad for a full meal!
