Making my salads a little better
To make  salads "better":


Add nuts or roasted pumpkins seeds to add some crunch.
Use bitter greens (arugula, radicchio,, white endives...)
Add some root vegetables (carrots, radish...)
Add some fruits either fresh or dried.
Make different type of dressing (asian, middle-eastern...)
Use different kind of protein(I hate that word) use smoked salmon, chicken, flank steak...
Add noodles (rice noodles, ramen...) or do a simple pasta salad.


Don't know if you already do this, but only put the dressing before eating the salad.
If wanting to use fruits or other "fragile" ingredients, try to pack them separatly and mix them up before eating to keep everything fresh
