Mediterranean Bean Salad

April 16, 2021

I really like to make this Mediterranean Bean Salad and keep it on hand for both weeknight and weekend meals. It’s fast, easy, fresh, and pairs well with any grilled or roasted meat. If you want to make this salad vegan then just leave out the feta cheese.

Belgian Endive & Radicchio Salad With Buttermilk Dressing

March 31, 2021

I like how buttermilk and sour cream give this dressing a zesty tang, but the creamy texture tames the pleasant bitterness of the greens. This simple salad is a delicious compliment to a weekend meal.

Chilled Noodle Salad With Sriracha Peanut Sauce

March 4, 2021

This is one of my go-to quick and easy week night dishes. I love it so much that I probably make it once a week. If you would like to make it gluten free then use tamari instead of soy sauce. If you’re peanut sensitive then use almond butter instead of peanut butter. And if you would like to increase the protein in this dish then just add cooked chicken or seafood.

Citrus & Pomegranate Salad

December 30, 2020

I love this delicious winter salad with pomegranate, orange segments, arugula, and Parmesan cheese. Perfect for every day and elegant enough for holiday meals.

Farro Salad

December 12, 2020

This just might be the perfect dish. It’s beautiful, delicious, healthy and easy to make. Like most good salads, it works well with variations. Try adding a little tuna, or serve it alongside steak or fish. Just be sure to use your best olive oil, and enough salt and pepper. This salad can be made a day ahead. For the best results on the second day, bring it to room temperature before serving and refresh it with a touch of olive oil and a squeeze of lemon.

Chicken & Pear Salad

December 2, 2020

This dinner salad is loaded with deliciousness and is a nice way to lighten up on all of that holiday eating. If you would like to lighten it up even more, then you may want to use a reduced or fat-free blue cheese dressing.

Cherry Tomato Feta Salad

August 25, 2020

This tomato salad has classic flavor combinations that you can serve for lunch or dinner. The sharpness of feta, aromatic olive oil, and fresh basil showcase the sweetness of the tomatoes.

Cumin Carrot & Chickpea Salad

August 24, 2020

Cumin roasted carrots and chickpeas come together as a delicious vegetarian salad that is great on its own or on a sandwich. You can make the dressing ahead of time and store in a jar until you’re ready to add the chickpeas. Leave out the feta if you’d like this salad to be vegan.

Grilled Corn Salad

August 17, 2020

This is such a fresh corn salad that it’s a shame that summer isn’t year-round. Fresh corn is best between the months of July and September, making this Grilled Corn Salad an excellent vegetable for summer barbecues. It is also great the next day as well after all of the flavors have had time to settle in.

Fig & Baked Tomato Salad

August 14, 2020

Yesterday I found beautiful fresh figs at an island farm stand. They are delicious eating on their own, but I also put them in a stunning summer salad.
