Very Berry Feta Spinach Salad
Full of vibrant colors and flavors, this Very Berry Feta Spinach Salad is a delicious summer salad that will captivate your taste buds. This salad is packed with wholesome ingredients like fresh strawberries, blueberries, walnuts, and tender baby spinach. To add some brightness it’s tossed with my Lively Lemon Vinaigrette, then topped with some tangy feta cheese and sautéed shallots. This salad is a delightful combination of sweet, tangy, salty, and earthy flavors. Can easily be made vegan & dairy free!
Lemony Lentil Salad
My Lemony Lentil Salad is both healthy and delicious! Steamed brown lentils are marinated in a fresh lemon and herb dressing, then combined with tomatoes and parsley. The bright dressing penetrates the warm lentils to give you a delicious flavor in every bite. This tasty salad makes a wonderful lunch or side dish. A great make ahead recipe, this lentil salad is best prepared the night before to allow all the flavors to develop. This quick and easy recipe is also plant-based, dairy free, and gluten free!
Greek Salad with Quinoa
Colorful and full of bright flavors, our Greek Salad with Quinoa will have you hooked on the first bite! Filled with crispy romaine, and plenty of heirloom grape tomatoes, feta cheese, Kalamata olives, English cucumbers, red onions, and perfectly cooked tri-color quinoa, this salad is definitely a meal. To round off these Mediterranean flavors, we drizzled it with our delicious Easy Greek Salad Dressing. This might even be the best Greek salad you have ever tasted!
