Scrumptous Vegetarian Salads
Similar to soups, vegetarian salads come in infinite variety. And they are no longer just side dishes or accompaniments. If your idea of a salad is a few chopped up lettuce leaves and a few tomato wedges, think again.
Vegetarian fare really comes into it's own with the salad. Raw, roasted, even steamed vegetables paired with your choice of nuts, grains or pastas, then dressed simply or simply dressed with olive oil.
Sometimes we serve these recipes cold, and sometimes we serve them hot. A particular favorite warm salad recipe is the grilled vegge salad. This low sodium recipe is at it's best in the Spring and Summer when the squash is in abundance.
Take advantage of the local farmer's markets to find your freshest produce. Whenever possible, I purchase organic produce because I find that the lettuce is a bit crisper, and the berries are much sweeter.
Change your food and feel great! These delicious salad recipes are healthful, fresh, crisp and completely satisfying.
I have found that the only time consuming aspect of salad making is the washing of your greens and vegetables. HINT: Do this task immediately after returning from your shopping. Your greens will keep fresher longer, and they will be ready when you are.
Taking your healthy meal has never been easier, or more fun! This new fit and fresh salad shaker has special compartments to hold your utensils and keeps your dressing separate from the salad until you are ready. No more soggy salads.
