Creamy Cherry Tomato Salad with Fresh Basil, Corn and Onion Ready Time: 30 Min "This cherry tomato-corn salad holds up well for summer picnics. Simply cut the raw corn from the cob -- no need to even cook it. Raisins are a surprise sweet addition."

Creamy Vinaigrette Ready Time: "A delicious, versatile dressing for pasta or green salads. Easily made in advance for use just before service."

Nicoise-Style Tuna Salad With White Beans & Olives Ready Time: "For my nicoise-style tuna salad, just open three cans: one each of tuna, white beans and sliced olives. Toss these ingredients with slivered red onion, olive oil and lemon juice. Take time, if you like, to boil eggs, or pick them up at the grocery salad bar. Serve the salad with steamed green beans. For an even simpler version, add a little chopped parsley to the salad for color and serve it with salted tomato slices."

Romaine With Apple, Pecans and Blue Cheese Ready Time: "Eating the skin of apples provides about twice the anti-cancer activity as eating only the pulp, Cornell University studies show. That's why this recipe says not to peel the apple. You may wonder about the hefty amount of fat in each serving. Don't: 90% of it is good monounsaturated fat from avocado and pecans."

Smoked Salmon & Watercress Salad With Red Onion-Caper Vinaigrette Ready Time: "Start with a salad of smoked salmon and watercress. Try to buy the commercial bagged watercress that already has been cleaned to speed things along, or you may substitute other mixed salad greens. (I like to make sure there are some bitter ones, such as radicchio and arugula, along with milder greens, such as butter lettuce or baby spinach.) Also, because this is such a simple salad, all the ingredients should be top-quality. So spring for the best smoked salmon you can find."

Tomato-Cornbread Salad with Avocado and Cilantro Ready Time: 1 Hr 40 Min "This tomato-cornbread salad -- a riff on panzella, the Italian peasant classic designed to revive stale bread -- relies on ripe, juicy tomatoes to moisten and flavor the dry bread. After salting the tomatoes, give them a little time to release their juices."
