Apple Quinoa Salad with Hot Walnut Bacon Dressing
Apples, quinoa, and salad greens get tossed with a savory hot walnut bacon dressing. Crunchy, savory, and just sweet enough. A fall favorite! Yep, you heard me. Walnuts. Bacon. Hot. Dressing. It's salty and crunchy and savory and tangy and sweet. It's a serious dressing that can hold it's own! This is no vinaigrette!! It's filling and hearty. It's -- dare I say it -- fall y'all! Maybe I ...
Summer Salad of Sugar Snap Peas, Corn, and Tomatoes
Finally the heat has arrived and Atlanta is having some great weather! For me that means it’s grilling season. Honestly I grill year 'round, but it’s more fun to sit out on your porch when the weather is nice, sipping a glass of wine and grilling dinner. Recently, I was making BBQ chicken and I decided to make a fresh and simple sugar snap pea salad to go along with it. Another great reason ...
Cauliflower Spring Pea Salad
I'm so excited to share this roasted cauliflower spring pea salad with you! This dish can be eaten hot or served cold at a picnic. The flavors just scream summer! Now, I've got to be straight up: this dish isn't horrible for you, but it certainly doesn't fall under our typical "healthy eats" category either. So...cue the mayo and bacon, don't eat it every day, and...get over it! It won't ...
Cauliflower Walnut “Meat” Taco Salad Bowl (Vegan)
Let's taco 'bout how amazing these taco salad bowls are. (Sorry, couldn't help it!) These salad bowls are so pretty and so delicious, no one will notice the "meat" is vegan. Not even your meat-loving boyfriend! I've been seeing more and more variations on taco "meat" substitutes in my instagram feed lately, so I thought I better check it out. And let me just tell you, I am SO glad I ...
Warm Brussels Sprouts and Pear Salad
This maybe one of the best salads I have ever made. Not to toot my own horn, but seriously, the textures and the flavors of this salad really compliment each other in such a way that I want to make this over and over! The dressing is my go-to! I make this dressing probably once or twice a month and always have it on hand. It goes on any salad, whether you're tossing up a nice cobb, putting ...
Simple Arugula Salad
Simple arugula salad - an easy green dish that packs a lot of flavor. Because arugula is so "peppery," it stands on its own super well, and I find that it doesn't need a lot of jazzing up. Pairing this salad green with a simple lemon juice + olive oil dressing balances out the peppery punch nicely. I love how light this dressing is! In my opinion, you don't want to use a heavy dressing (we're ...
Grapefruit + Avocado Salad
I have such fond memories of this salad. My grandmother has been making this salad as a side for our family Christmas every year since I can remember. As a kid I don’t think I appreciated the culmination of textures and citrus flavors that excite your tastebuds, but as a young adult and into my twenties I have looked forward every year to this Grapefruit + Avocado Salad. The pairing of the tangy ...
Roasted Beet, Fennel + Citrus Salad
Citrus, beets and fennel - you might think the individual ingredients are too individually bold to work well together, but in reality, when paired together, they balance each other out so well! The acid from the citrus helps to balance out the sweetness of the beets. I love this recipe from The Splendid Table that also incorporates fennel. Fennel helps to brighten the beet flavor. Roasting ...
Coconut Chicken Tender Salad (Whole30 + Paleo)
This coconut chicken tender salad is an easy week-night dinner that packs up well for lunch the following day. It's such a refreshing and filling meal, and one you can feel great about eating! Side bonus: if you have kids who are picky eaters, you can eat the chicken tenders and berries over greens, and they can eat the meal sans greens! I love coconut-crusted tenders and coconut shrimp at ...
