Lyndsey Rose's yummy salad (May 2008)
purple cabbage, shredded
carrots, julienned
collard greens, julienned
red onion, julienned
tomatoes, cubed (substitute sun dried during the off-season)
whatever fresh herbs are available (cilantro, basil, parsley...)
walnuts
-during the summer I go to farmers markets and put all kinds of fresh veggies in this salad- anything and everything works

dressing:
Olive oil
lemon juice
minced garlic
Nama Shoyo or tamari
sea salt
cumin
-this dressing is awesome and I usually make enough to last me a few days. The exact proportions of ingredients will vary according to your own taste. I put massive amounts of garlic in mine, but that doesn't appeal to all so play around with it.

topping:
raw pumpkin seeds
raw sesame seeds
cumin seeds
to roast: In heated skillet, add about 1 T oil, roast pumpkin seeds for about 2 minutes, then add other seeds and toast for another 2-4 minutes, until light brown. Salt to taste.
