Being raised by a pastry chef has lead me to some strange adult behaviors, particularly where it comes to food. Like my complete distain for boxed cake mix (understandable)... but a little less explicably, it resulted in a completely different conceptualization of the cooking process than most people have.
If you've ever baked something from scratch (if you're here, you probably have. I love you for that), you know how precise measurements need to be: exact, leveled, frigging precise. It took years of tedious adulthood dinner preparations before someone finally told me that cooking (vs baking), does not require extreme precision. I leveled my teaspoons of dried thyme, guys. I'm reformed, I don't need a perfectly perfected recipe for every single thing now. Except sometimes, I want them.
I know that salads don't require recipes. I know this. However, think of these as a visual reminder to eat better today. Tomorrow. The day after that. So many salad inspirations, so much time!

This is probably not the healthiest salad in the world. And this is how many craps I give about that (read: few-to-none)
Greek Salad

Because Greek salads are crazy delicious.

This chicken Caesar looks like the perfect combination of healthy and comfort food. What can I say, I live in the South, I am a comfort food junkie.

This one is kind of a 'duh' right? I mean, it has duck on it, guys. I used to pretend like bacon was a vegetable (making it suitable for my "vegetarian" self to eat), and then I ate some duck--and seven years of vegetarianism down the drain. I lurve duck.
from Martha Stewart
Just all-around yes on this one, please! So much protein and delicious.
