These 12 Old Fashioned Salad Recipes will add a fun vintage vibe to your holiday table! If you're craving nostalgia, you'll love these easy side dishes!
There's nothing like a holiday to bring out the nostalgia in everyone. I notice right before Thanksgiving, Christmas and Easter, I start getting lots of views on my old fashioned side salad recipes, like ambrosia and Jello fruit salad.
These are fluffy, creamy side salads your mom or grandma probably made back in the day. Some are staples at summer potlucks, but they're perfect for holiday dinners!
Since I'm seeing so many people looking for recipes mom or grandma used to make, I thought I would put together a roundup of old fashioned salads so you can find them all in one place. Just in time for the holiday season!
