Food help needed!

1. Is there such a thing as a "winter" salad? Does it matter? We are having ham and roasted potatoes and green beans, and I want to have a salad as well. Can I just do a lettuce/spinach salad with either sliced strawberries or some raspberries, and some candied almonds or something, even though in my mind that's totally a "springtime" salad? Is there something different that would go better?

2. Anyone have a good recipe for stuffed mushrooms? I've never made them. Caveat - any dairy products (cheese, butter) have to be either easily omitted or substituted for.
