This chickpea salad is the kind of salad that will have a chickpea salad hater scooping up every last chickpea. Seriously. That dressing and chickpeas are meant to be. It’s a love story. A Parmesan laced love story.
LENTIL AND FREEKAH SALAD WITH APRICOTS FETA AND RED CABBAGE
This is sort of the third salad I’ve posted this week… whoops! This was clearly not well planned, but it’s all I feel like eating at the moment. This one is super filling due to the lentils and freekah and can easily become a stand alone meal with the addition of some grilled chicken or a soft boiled egg. Perfection.
ZA’ATAR ROASTED CAULIFLOWER WITH SPICED RICE, MINT, POMEGRANATE AND LABNEH
Guess what? I’m cooking with cauliflower again! I know this is no surprise. My obsession has been well documented throughout this blog. This is a super tasty salad that looks a little fancy on the plate. Because you deserve something fancy looking.
BOWL FOOD: 12 HEALTHY BOWL FOOD IDEAS TO GET YOU THROUGH PARTY SEASON
Most days either my lunch or dinner is some sort of bowl food. Because things eaten from a bowl with just one utensil are somehow simpler and better… well maybe not better (I feel this is unfair to all the other delicious non-bowl food out there) but really good!
ASPARAGUS, BROAD BEAN AND MINT COUS COUS SALAD
This salad is so pretty with the beautiful green vegetables next to the spheres of cous cous dressed in a simple lemony dressing. It’s also pretty simple to throw together and great as a meal by itself or as a side.
MISO AND SESAME CHICKEN SKEWERS WITH CUCUMBER AND MINT SALAD
These skewers are easy to throw together and make a delicious weeknight meal. They’re also great on the barbecue or at even cold at a picnic! Which seems super appropriate seeing as it’s Cup day and those are two things that hopefully someone is doing today! But anyway, I love the salty unaminess (making up words again) of them against the cool and refreshing salad.
LOADED CHICKEN SALAD WITH HONEY MUSTARD DRESSING
I didn’t really know what to call this as it has a bit of everything in it and is loaded with flavour.. thus what I ended up calling it! This salad is a reworking of one of my favourite vegetarian salads but with a different dressing and a few other changes because… well I can’t make it the same now can I?
WASABI AVOCADO, EDAMAME AND PINK GRAPEFRUIT NOODLE SALAD
The noodle salad is made with a mixture of ribboned carrot ‘noodles’ and rice noodles. The combination of fresh and pickled vegetables with the spicy avocado dressing a tart grapefruit is so refreshing you’ll be craving this when the warm weather really sets in.
SPRING POWER SALAD
This salad is high in protein and fibre to keep you full for longer and it’s so delicious! Like, surprisingly delicious. I made it for my friend Ally for lunch and she proceeded to message me at 30 second intervals as she ate it saying things like ‘it’s so yummmmm’ ‘Holy shit this salad is delicious’ and the like. She’s very supportive.
QUINOA TABBOULEH SALAD
This super simple salad is such a great lunch box option or the perfect side for all those upcoming barbecues.
