Some of these sound good, I'll have to try some. When I want a hearty salad, I add garbanzo beans, feta cheese, Kalamata olives, blueberries and small bits of chicken with balsamic vinaigrette dressing (I like Ken's Lite). My green is usually baby spinach leaves but I've noticed lately that the leaves are getting bigger and bigger.

Surprised they didn't list garbanzos or feta. I add peeled roasted chestnuts, cut in half, radish slices, and daikon slices.

Feta is there with the minimum of cheese listed....

Or like what I've been doing for the last few weeks, garden grown fresh tomatoes as the base. With beans and cheese-any or all cheese
