Greek Chicken Salad Livin’

I ate those pita chips up there for dinner. Then a few more forkfuls of this chicken salad right out of the jar! It’s really good. The kind you’re so excited to eat that you end up standing up in the kitchen dunking crackers in it. The kind you pack for lunch to share with your boyf. The kind you recommend over that weird deli biz every time. There’s no mayo up in here. The…

Picnic Time (Focaccia Sandwich + Salads)

It’s totally spummer out. (Ya know, that season that’s right between spring and summer.) One day it’s 87 and the next day it’s 65. This weather is cray. But on the ideal spummer day it’s good to have picnic fixings on the ready! You see, this day would be about 75 and sunny, and it wouldn’t rain as soon as you sat on your picnic blanket, and you sure wouldn’t cut your thumb on the…

Funfetti Salad

For the longest time I ate snooze-fest salads. I’d feel disappointed if I had to muster one up for lunch. But I was going about it all wrong! You see, the key to an awesome salad is lots of bright colors and sriracha in the vinaigrette. This salad is rainbow, and puts the fun in funfetti, ya know? And this can be switched up however you fancy. It’s tasty with spinach, kale, romaine, or arugula.…

Crispy Chickpea Cobb Salad

Polka dot pants are the new denim. Cowboy boots are the new cold weather necessity. Pink is the new black, and this salad is the new roasted sweet potato and black bean quesadilla. At least in my life. I can’t stop making this! Especially because once you have the ingredients you can salad it up for days. I made this for my parents when they visited. I’ve made this for a friend of mine twice.…

Vietnamese Vermicelli Salad with Peanut-Crusted Chicken

This is the kind of meal where you can’t help but take giant, un-ladylike, but totally respectable, bites. These noodles are Lady and the Tramp-esque.

And I promise you’ll be full before you want to be. You might get mad at your tum for not…

Roasted Vegetable & Israeli Couscous Salad with Goat Cheese

Let’s have a multi-colored lunch, and cook an eggplant for the first time. Let’s eat this super-model salad with my favorite spoon, and try super-hard to save it for lunch tomorrow! Let’s put some chicken sausage in it, and fall in love with couscous again. Let’s serve it with pizza. Let’s serve it with this pizza: Mushroom Fontina Pizza. I did, and it was a lovely match! A couple of hotties, even! You see, we  go…

The Katie Salad

My friend, Katie, is the coolest. She’s the cutest and most fun. She also makes really good salads. This one is my favorite. Partly because it has avocado in it, but mostly because it’s delicious. Honestly, I wish I had this in my fridge all the time for snacking. And the bleu cheese makes it so good! You barely need any dressing. So you guys should probably make this, and be the most popular person…

Fried Goat Cheese and Strawberry Salad

I need to get it together. The other day I got on the treadmill at the gym with my sunglasses on. Then I failed at installing an air conditioner in the window. And yesterday, I cooked chicken and then dropped it in the sink into a dirty cup. But when salads like this happen, I don’t feel as bad about messing stuff up. You see, this salad is a win. The goat cheese is crunchy…
