Summer’s Freshest: Light Dinner Salads

Hold onto your hats, salad fam, because summer's here, and it's brought its A-game in veggie form! ☀️

We're talkin' sun-kissed flavors, crisp textures, and enough freshness to make your taste buds do a happy dance. This ain't your average lettuce-and-tomato situation, folks. This meal plan is fruity-packed with light, refreshing, and oh-so-satisfying salad recipes that'll have you saying "Hallelujah!" after every bite.

A fresh homage to summer! Don’t let the season pass by without indulging in this fresh, sweet, crunchy, wholly irresistible amalgam of colors, flavors and textures.

This summer pasta has spicy wilted kale and garlic, salty roasted eggplant, feta crumble, a splash of lemon, and al dente whole wheat penne. If you have any, toss in some toasted pine nuts!

A delicious roast chicken salad made with brown and wild rice mixed together with avocado, apple cider vinegar, rocket leaves, slices of fresh nectarine, chives and feta cheese.

This isn’t your average salad! Say goodbye to lettuce, and hello to savory cured meat, sweet melon, creamy mozzarella, and spicy arugula. To top it off, we have a super simple tangy mint basil vinaigrette that just screams “spring”. Make the dressing in advance and then pull together this salad for a quick lunch, your picnic in a portable container, or light dinner whenever the mood strikes!

In honor of my love for summer, I present to you this late summer harvest salad, which is all that I want to eat right now. A gorgeous ensemble of everything that is ripe and in season at the moment – this salad needs to happen in your life before summer is over.
