PARSLEY AND ROMAINE SALAD
I sometimes use parsley as a salad green, adding the leaves whole or cutting them into chiffonade, as I do in this delicate salad. You can dress it with a vinaigrette, or with a simpler combination of 1 tablespoon lemon juice and 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil.

Steps:
- Place chopped or torn romaine in a large salad bowl. Cut fennel bulb down the center, then again, quartering it. Remove the core with angled cuts on each quarter bulb. Thinly slice quarter bulbs across and add to salad bowl. Combine romaine and fennel with parsley sprigs and red onion. Place one fingertip over the top of balsamic vinegar to control the pour and splash a few tablespoons into the bowl. Drizzle the salad generously with extra-virgin olive oil and toss lightly to coat salad evenly with vinegar and oil. Season with salt and pepper, to taste, and top salads with curls of Asiago or Parmigiano, created by shaving cheese with your knife.
PARSLEY SALAD WITH FENNEL AND HORSERADISH
I have always been the one at the Seder table to eat the parsley dipped in saltwater with enthusiasm. "You going to finish that?" I might ask my neighbor at the table when I see they have left theirs untouched after just a nibble. This salad is an obvious nod to the Seder plate, including both parsley (bitter herbs) and fresh horseradish, except it's less ceremonial and more just a very delicious salad. I love, love parsley and think a well-seasoned bowl of it is something that most tables can benefit from, especially if those tables include braised pots of red meat. While parsley and fennel can be prepared ahead of time, the salad itself is best dressed right before you eat.

Steps:
- Toss fennel and parsley together in a medium bowl. Add lemon juice, season with salt and pepper, and toss to coat. Season again with salt, pepper and more lemon juice if you like. (It should be fairly lemony.)
- Drizzle with olive oil, toss to coat and grate a bit of fresh horseradish over everything, gently tossing to distribute the horseradish. (Doing it this way prevents clumping.) Transfer to a serving bowl and grate more horseradish over before serving.
EASY PARSLEY SALAD (TABBOULEH) RECIPE
A light and refreshing salad with parsley, mint, tomatoes, cucumber and green onions. A good splash of olive oil and lemon juice finish it off beautifully. This is the food you feel good about. Refrigerate for a couple of hours to bring up more flavors. It holds nicely in the fridge, so you can make it ahead. Works great for picnics or potlucks. Note: if not on Whole30, you can also add 1/2 - 1 cup of cooked couscous or bulgur.

PARSLEY SALAD ALA NIGELLA LAWSON
This very unusual salad is very pretty and unique. This may not be for everyone's taste buds, but is a pleasant change from the norm. I saw this prepared on the tv program "Nigella Bites." It would go well with Meditteranean or Middle Eastern style dishes and is a nice compliment to grilled chicken or fish. Be sure to only use fresh ingredients. I don't serve this as a side salad on its own, but rather, as a bed for salmon or other fish.

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.

This salad is simple, but it's big on flavor. The shaved Parmesan adds intense cheese flavor, and the nicely balanced dressing lets the other flavors shine. If you're pressed for time, it's good with bottled dressing, too.

Top with segments and juice and drizzle with olive oil and a dash of vinegar. Season with a bit of salt. Sprinkle with parsley, olives, feta, and almonds.
Tips:
- Choose fresh, crisp romaine lettuce. Look for leaves that are deep green and free of brown spots or wilting.
- Wash the romaine lettuce thoroughly. Rinse the leaves under cold water and pat them dry.
- Use a variety of toppings. This salad is a great way to use up leftover vegetables. Some good options include cherry tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, and croutons.
- Make a simple dressing. A vinaigrette dressing is a classic choice for this salad. You can also use a creamy dressing, such as ranch or Caesar.
- Serve the salad immediately. This salad is best when served fresh. The romaine lettuce will start to wilt if it sits for too long.
