Sensational Summer Salads

Today we have put together 12 of our favorite sensational summer salads. The salads featured here include fruit salads. potato salads, coleslaw, and our favorite, a delicious seafood salad that I have been making for over 20 years. I hope you’ll give one or more of these recipes a try. If you’re like me, summertime is that time of year to try new summer salads.

Hot, Hot Hot

I love to eat a nice sensational summer salad when the temperatures reach 80 degrees and above or when that hot, humid and muggy weather hits here in northern WI. It’s so nice to open the refrigerator, reach inside and pull out a big bowl of pasta salad, fruit salad or seafood salad. Then I like too scoop some salad into a bowl, grab an ice tea and head outside to the picnic table. Salad just seems to taste better when your sitting outside.
