Method
Wash and dry the greens. Tear the lettuce and put all the greens in a very large container. Toss together; start putting in other ingredients as your imagination hits your fancy (remember your inner artist)--Cherry Tomatoes, Feta Cheese, Kalamata or black olives, pineapple, mandarin oranges, strawberries, purple grapes, red pepper. Make a depression in the center of the salad so you can fit in the Potato salad; arrange remaining ingredients around the potato salad--Hard cooked egg wedges and cashews. At the end put in the garlic croutons, just a few. Also, garnish with few shreds of baby carrots. Use any dressing your heart desires. I use Sweet Vidalia Onion dressing (Ken's brand) or eat it just like that. It is very colorful and refreshing. It is a meal in itself!
