Do you ever get in a salad rut?! I know I sure do.
Sometimes, I'll look in the fridge for a salad idea and all I can think is "ugh."
I guess we all win and lose some sometimes, right?
It could be that while being home for so long I've lost salad inspiration, am at a loss for what to buy in my weekly grocery trip (my main dishes seem to get the priority lately), or just don't have as many fresh ingredients around.
Seeking some inspiration, I asked some of my favorite food blogger friends to share with me their favorite salad recipes.
And after going through this list, I'm confident to say that I feel ready to tackle my salad game again. 🙂 I hope you feel the same.
All salads recipes, if I haven't already tried, I have reviewed for max deliciousness and I'm pretty confident you are going to love this list!
We have everything from vegan and oil-free salads to steak and pasta salads, leaving you ready for your weeknight salad dinners as well as any upcoming social distancing or small family picnics or barbecues (Memorial Day or Fourth of July, anyone?).
So, scroll on, and let me know in the comments which salads you've tried and how you enjoyed them!
Happy cooking, everyone. 💚
