Default Looking for Salad Ideas

There are only so many green salads I can eat with vinegarette dressing before I start to get COMPLETELY BORED! Can you all offer some other tasty and easy ideas? The other salad I make myself occassionally is tomato, cucumber and red onion in balsamic vinegar and a dash of olive oil. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

Add fresh herbs like Basil to your salads.
Spinach salad with mandarin oranges, thin sliced red onion and fat free raspberry dressing.

What kind of greens are you using? Please don't tell me your using boring and hardly nutritous ice berg. Blah!
