I can't say that salads are the thing that anyone really wants to gravitate towards, but there's so many health benefits + the variations you can make are truly endless.
Today, I'm sharing 3 healthy salad options for the summer to keep you going. These are salads that I actually love and get me to eat more greens.
Check out these ideas and let me know which one you try (it should be all 3).

What's your formula for a great salad?

@silentraisin Жыл бұрын

eating the rainbow is a solid formula i learned a few years ago and making an effort to add variety makes food more visually appealing for me as well as incorporating contrasting taste profiles

As a main dish it should be nutritious & filling and have lots of different colours & textures and crunch & creaminess! 😋 Fresh, crunchy greens/vegetables and a great dressing are key for any good salad, IMO!

@MrsMMcG Жыл бұрын

Sweet (fruit), salty (miso or soy sauce), healthy oil (avo or seeds), savory (beans or tofu). Makes it a meal, not a meal opener. 🙂

I really love these recipes and am hooked on this channel to come up with new vegan ideas. Another tip would be to ditch the store bought taco seasoning and make your own without the extra bs they add to it(smoked paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, chili powder, cumin, salt, pepper) when I discovered this, I stopped buying store bought and you can customize it.

oh shit! As a chef, I'm picturing the flavors and textures of the first salad in my mind and they taste awesome. I think the creaminess of the avocado will blend the crunch and spices from the sweet potato and chickpeas so well with the fresh vibes from the sweet'n'sour'n'light bitterness from the kale. God it looks amazing xD Maybe I would add some cooked red beets after drowning them in lime(zest), roasted black pepper corns and olive oil, for some extra sweet and sour happiness and to give it a bit more of a 2022 inclusive colorscheme 😇 Well done my friend and I can't wait for the rest of the video

My go to formula for a salad is: 1. Aim for 80-90% raw fresh veg &/or fruit. The greener the better. 2. Include lots of plant fats using suitable oils for a dressing & roasted (soft) nuts &/or seeds like sesame, sunflower, pecan, cashew etc. 3. Infuse the dressing with lots of flavour using garlic, spices, a type of acid (citrus or vinegar), salt, soy-sauce etc. 4. Optionally, add a warm/grilled or textured/crispy element for a diverse mouthfeel & enjoyment.
