My family's go to salad for holiday meals is Apple and Beet Salad with Candied Walnuts and Cashew Cheese. We usually double the dressing. I've never done the cashew cheese for it, but I think other cheeses like smoked gouda, goat, or feta would be good with it too.

This might be slightly off of the spirit of salad, but one of my go-to summer sides is this simple grilled potato salad. It doesn’t use mayo so that’s helpful for me. You don’t actually need a grill, you can just use the oven, but the parboiling step is VERY helpful.

The vinaigrette is forgiving too, I think the only absolutely necessary ingredients are the garlic, oil, SOME sort of allium (used cipollini onions instead of shallots one time, for example), and the whole grain mustard.

That is fully a salad and it looks gorgeous!
