This is one of those salads that works as a meal and has lots of things to love in it. Crispy halloumi is so addicting. If you haven’t tried it yet, you can crisp it up in the oven or on the stove top and it adds such a nice cheesy, salty, crispy deliciousness toContinueContinue reading “Crispy Halloumi Salad with Garlic Shrimp and Shallot Vinaigrette”

Blackened Salmon Salad with Honey Mustard
Ever since I started making these Crispy Sesame Salmon Rice Bowls, my favorite way to cook salmon is the get the bite sized pieces nice and crispy on the outside. It is a really different and enjoyable way to eat salmon and this recipe uses that technique, but with a totally different flavor profile/presentation. InContinueContinue reading “Blackened Salmon Salad with Honey Mustard”
Vietnamese Chicken Salad Noodle Bowl
This Vietnamese chicken salad noodle bowl is pretty much my favorite kind of dinner to make. It is light and healthy, but it is anything but boring with lots of fresh herbs, veggies and nước chấm lime sauce for the dressing. If you have not had nước chấm, it is a sweet and sour sauceContinueContinue reading “Vietnamese Chicken Salad Noodle Bowl”
Mediterranean Balsamic Chicken Salad
On days where I don’t feel like eating heavier food, I love a good salad. It has to be full of flavor and texture and tasty things though or it can be boring. I love how easy and delicious this one is, and I’m always a sucker for anything with balsamic vinegar in the recipe.ContinueContinue reading “Mediterranean Balsamic Chicken Salad”
Charred Peach Salad with Fresh Mozzarella and Pesto
I wanted a summery salad to make with our 4th of July meal and decided to go with this charred peach salad. In general, I’m not a fan of just throwing random fruit onto a salad as it often feels out of place and like an afterthought. I do really love charred or grilled fruitContinueContinue reading “Charred Peach Salad with Fresh Mozzarella and Pesto”
Harissa Chicken Bowls
These harissa chicken bowls are roughly based on the one you can get at Cava. I had never heard of Cava before one opened in my town a few months ago, but it is a salad/wrap kind of place and I love that you can make a custom salad bowl to your liking. The harissaContinueContinue reading “Harissa Chicken Bowls”

Tasty bbq chicken, fresh veggies, cheese, crunch from the crushed tortilla chips and an amazing dressing I will definitely be using again in the future. Use my homemade bbq sauce recipe for an extra treat. :) I used chicken breasts for this, but you could alsoContinueContinue reading “BBQ Chicken Salad with Buttermilk Cilantro Ranch”
Thai Beef Salad
Thai beef salad is one of our favorite things to order at Thai restaurants, but it is easy to make at home too. This salad is so fresh and full of amazing flavor and with the steak you don’t walk away still feeling hungry. The key to this salad is the herbs and the dressing.ContinueContinue reading “Thai Beef Salad”
Peruvian Chicken Salad with Aji Verde
Do you guys have Alpaca where you live? They have the best Peruvian chicken and we love eating there. I also love making any variant of the dish at home. The Aji Verde (green sauce) is really the star, but the chicken is amazing too. This recipe turns the dish into a salad with theContinueContinue reading “Peruvian Chicken Salad with Aji Verde”
Fried Caper Panzanella
This fried caper version of panzanella is pretty much all the things I love. It is best made with fresh summer garden tomatoes, which I did not have, so I used the best store tomatoes I could find. If you have a garden, or know someone who grows them, do yourself a favor and useContinueContinue reading “Fried Caper Panzanella”
