Salad bowl question --kind of random

What bowls do you use to eat salads in? I'm talking salads that are your meal salads, not little side salads Chat Icon

Regular bowls are too small to mix things up nicely...and then I can't find anything bigger that is not too big (it all becomes like vegetable bowls), maybe I'm not looking in the right place

Any ideas? TIA!

I use a pasta serving bowl. I have also used large platters when I make a Nicoise salad. It looks so much nicer when presented on a platter.

I have Pyrex nesting bowls. The 1.5 quart works nicely when I have a salad as a meal.

It's the orange lidded one I like best!

Do you mean to make a great big salad and then have people scoop out their portion?

or do you mean to eat yourself?

......I'm a salad addict. I have 2 salads a day.....I use this GIANT mixing bowl from ikea....it works. It's huge.

We use our pasta bowls for entree salads. But if it's taco salads, I have two of a melamine serving bowl from C&B years ago that I loooove for that use. This one here is kind of similar...just a little less shallow than what I have.

Our pasta bowls are too shallow, so I have two small serving bowls that I use for salads.

My husband & I both use these huge mixing bowls when we have salads (some people might actually serve all their guests a salad that sizeChat Icon )

I've been eating troffs for a salad since I was in collegeChat Icon

I use my pasta bowls. They're shallow but wide so much better than a regular bowl for eating a big salad. BTW, I also love them for breading chicken.

I have a set similar to this one:
