*Contest is over! I’ve chosen Tina’s name “Rock My Broccoli Salad” for the title!
Hey everyone. So I kind of need your help.
You see, I made a delicious salad the other day and I absolutely loved it, but because it has so many ingredients I couldn’t really decide on what to call it. So I want hear some suggestions from you.
In fact, I’ll even give a little prize to the person who comes up with the best name for this salad recipe. (I’m going to put it in my next salad recipe ebook you see so it needs a catchy title.)
So please let me know what name you think suits this salad and it’s ingredients that make it sound delicious and appetizing. I’ll announce the winner later this week. And since it’s open to everyone (and some of you may have already purchased one or two of my recipe ebooks) I want to offer the winner a copy of any one of my ebooks they don’t already have. So if you’ve been dying for a particular ebook, please don’t miss out on this chance to enter! Plus it’s a fun way for me to get feedback from you.
I usually stick to all raw ingredients when I make my salads and dressings, but not always. This one however is pretty much all raw and super fresh (depending on the cranberries, but you can use something else instead if you wish.)
Once this salad is tossed together with the orange hemp dressing and the avocado chunks get all broken up and creamy, it’s a super tasty and decadent salad, but it’s jam packed full of vegetables and still light. I never use any oil in my salads and try to keep them zesty and flavorful but lower fat at the same time.
If you’re going to make this salad and not use it all in one meal, it’s best to portion it out and keep the remaining dressing separate so it doesn’t wilt the lettuce. Use the dressing within 3 days as it is fresh.

If you have ever seen the movie The Celestine Prophecy….I think you will know why I picked what I am ….I would call it Celestine Splendor Salad…because of the the shape, colors and the variety of all that goodness coming together….
Teresa de Souza
THis One IS GREATT ! I LOVE The Ingredients !
They really , really fit Together because of their ‘ Tastes Directions ‘ .
.
( … but ACTUALLY , the Cucumber , I would leave out .
I think Cucumber fit into very few Combinations … Cucumber with Tomatoes alone fit … )
.
But otherwise its GREAT , in REALITY !
ALL THSE INGREDIENTS TOGETHER !
I AGREE WITH IT AND LOVE IT !

I think you should name it : Rainbow Garden Salad

Well, I think Veronica that your readers have talent to give name to recipes and you now have hundred of interesting title for more salads to come.
I would name it : the Rainbow Salad, or the French name, Salade Arc-en-ciel, because it is very colourful.
I already have your Savory raw dinner recipes, so I would love to take time to choose another book if I am the lucky winner.

I already submitted one, but its not showing, so I am trying again. If it repeats, my apologies.
I wanted to tell you that I am going on my second water fast this week. Last time I fasted, I spent a lot of the time thinking about food, so I read over your recipes (Raw Savoury Recipes) over and over again in preparation of what I was going to eat when the fast was done. I decided to download your ebook to my laptop so I could look over the recipes again on my next fast. One of the recipes that caught my eye was Orange hemp salad dressing. And lo and behold, you posted this recipe about 20 minutes after!! HA!
Here are my entries:
“Raw’k Around The Brocc” Salad
L’Orange Primavera
Hemp’s Glory Ascent
Good luck everyone!!!
Amy

Andrea Kober
I am just getting ready to do my second water fast. During the first fast I loved looking at your recipes (Savoury Recipes) to prepare my mind for what I was going to eat when the fast finished. I was just looking over your recipe book as I am downloading it on to my laptap so I can enjoy looking through the recipes during my next fast. I opened orange hemp salad dressing first and then 20 min later you posted this!! Ha!
So my titles are
Raw’k around the brocc salad
or
L’Orange Primavera
or
Hemp’s Glory Ascent

That looks delicious! I just commented to vote for the “Circle of Life” name from Alana. I think that says it all and would certainly catch my eye in a cookbook.
Wanda Jenkins
It looks delicious! How about naming it the “Super Fresh Kitchen Sink Salad” because it has everything but the kitchen sink in it!
Mary

Tina Wood
This salad looks delicious. I am getting ready to go vegan and will make this for sure.
As for the name how about:

“Ramsay’s Salad Royale” (the salad looks like something Royalty would serve…)
“Ramsay’s Royal Salad”
“Knock Out Salad” (the salad does knock my socks off!)
But I still love….
using the word SEDUCTION because it does just that….seduces one to make and eat it…
“Sexy Salad” seriously!
“Seriously Sexy Salad”
“Ramsay’s Sexy Salad”
WHATEVER THE NAME….I CANNOT WAIT TO EAT IT and read your book…
Allison
Although I am a vegetarian, you are my favorite chef because my teen son and husband love any food I prepare using your recipes, which so far have included meat. I am not a great cook and need simple, detailed recipes. It seems to me that you preach freshness and simplicity. I love your style. Recently I found you on YouTube and am so excited to watch you cook and perhaps follow along.
Your salad LOOKS delicious, has an EXPLOSION of color, different textures, different shapes/sizes, and varies in flavors that will blend deliciously together! Looking at the picture, I can smell the freshness an my mouth waters and my tummy rumbles. And…..affordable.
What more can one want in a salad….all of a person’s senses have been excited! I think the name should somehow convey my description. Your salad seduces me!
“Salad Seduction”
Low Fat Vegan Chef Veronica
Wow thank you Allison. That’s quite a compliment! Thank you for reading and trying my recipes. I love getting feedback 🙂
Michelle
Salad looks delish and I’m looking forward to trying it. As far as naming the salad…..
How about:
“The Gran Royale” (in honor of one of my favorite movies “Pulp Fiction”. Ironic because the “Royale with cheese” was referring to a Big Mac!)
—or—-
“The Big Salad” (to quote another favorite, “Seinfeld”)
All the Best!
