ARUGULA AND ROMAINE SALAD WITH RED GRAPES
I looked into my refrigerator to see what I had...and the ingredients jumped to my imagination. I thought: I think this has to taste good and go well with my baked grouper dinner...and it was not only good but great! The mild bitterness of the arugula and the sweetness of grapes and pickled veggies is a perfect combination. A cool crisp pinot bianco is the perfect match.

SIMPLE ROMAINE SALAD
This is a take on a very simple and delicious salad I had at a Greek restaurant in NYC. It's so easy and the end result is super satisfying. Of course you can add your favorite herbs and toppings. But we find the lightly dressed salad is amazing and a great accompaniment to meat. Sprinkle with the salt right before serving; that pop of flavor and crunch is so good. Finishing salt is a must for this salad.

ROMAINE, FETA AND GRAPE SALAD
I discovered this salad looking for a different use for romaine lettuce. I used green seedless grapes but I think red or black would be prettier. I love the sweet pop of the grapes with the saltiness of the feta. The dressing i s lovely too. From Food Network and Daisuke Utagawa

- If you can't find red grapes, you can substitute another type of sweet grape, such as green grapes or black grapes.

- You can also add other ingredients to this salad, such as crumbled goat cheese, sliced almonds, or chopped bacon.
- This salad is best served immediately, but it can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
