Have you ever made a Hawaiian salad before? It’s kind of like a simpler version of a cobb salad – it’s perfect for any celebration!

I love hanging out in the summer and preparing fresh, simple meals for the family. Whether we are just hanging out in the backyard, or Glamping on the Oregon coast, I enjoy making simple things slightly fancy.

I’ll be honest, sometimes I get a little bored with salads, so I find myself coming up with ideas to make them more fun, not just for me, but for the entire family. I recently came up with this Hawaiian salad, inspired by one of my favorite pizza flavors. It’s shredded leafy greens mixed with chopped Canadian bacon, diced pineapples, olives, shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheeses, and served inside of a “cabbage bowl”.

This salad can be served for any fun summer celebration, like glamping, picnics, backyard dinners, or family get-together’s. I like to pair with some wine, like Woodbridge by Robert Mondavi. Woodbridge has been around for over 30 years and is a brand that creates wine meant to be shared with others. It’s great to serve at any occasion, and they now offer good quality wine in a convenient single serve cup! I love this packaging because it’s easy to serve on the go, and is very versatile!

Hawaiian Salad Bowl Recipe

What you need:

2 heads of cabbage

2 cups of shredded green leaf lettuce

1 cup of chopped Canadian bacon

1 cup of sliced black olives

1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese

1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese

Dressing of your choice

Directions:

Carefully cut each cabbage in half, and cut out the centers of them so that they form a bowl.  Set aside.  In a large bowl mix the lettuce, Canadian bacon, black olives, mozzarella cheese, and cheddar cheese. Divide evenly among the four cabbage halves. Top with your favorite dressing and serve with a single serve Woodbridge by Robert Mondavi Chardonnay & Cabernet Sauvignon!

These salad bowls are perfect for on the go lunch celebrations, as you can easily wrap them up in plastic wrap and pack them in a picnic basket or lunch bag.
