Salad Recipes

Last Wednesday we took this colourful and delicious salad to a pot-luck, everyone loved it and a few of them even asked for the recipe. It was such a refreshing salad that's also packed with goodness.

Toasting quinoa in pan creates much more flavor than just boiling it directly. Quinoa is tossed with a light yet tasty vinaigrette, sugar snap peas, apples, bell peppers, celery, red onions and toasted walnuts. You can make the salad one day ahead, it tastes even better next day.

Give your meal a new look by adding this simple salad that combines classic flavors of creamy fresh mozzarella, tomatoes and basil.

An easy classic that's even easier using a microwave oven.

Grilled new potato, crunchy green beans, feta and olives are tossed with red wine vinaigrette, sprinkling some fresh oregano on top. A light and tasty salad for summer.

Loved the idea of infusing curry, chili powder and cumin seeds in the oil, which made the curry oil so flavorful. The combination of apples, bell peppers, celeries, raisins, and peas (I used peas instead of snow peas) was delicious with the curried rice.

A refreshing and delicious salad is also nutritious and healthy!

This salad's presentation is quite lovely. The citrus vinaigrette is top notch and we use the leftovers for other vegetables. The combination of orange, lemon, lime and grapefruit really kick it up a notch. If you really want to impress your guests and blow them away with sophistication this is sure to wow them. Or just make the dressing and use it for other dishes and turn any ordinary vegetable into something special.

Marinated artichoke hearts, fresh baby arugula and sweet cherry tomatoes are a delicious combination in a salad, tossed with a light and tasty balsamic vinaigrette, perfectly balanced sweetness and freshness!

A quick and easy summer salad is made with sweet and juicy cherry tomatoes, fresh and aromatic basil and mozzarella, then tossed with a balsamic vinaigrette. Fresh mozzarella is always the best, but feel free to use normal mozzarella if you don't have any fresh one on hand.
