Easy Healthy Side Salads
If you need healthy salad ideas to serve as a side dish, these fit the bill. There’s everything from leafy greens (like spinach, lettuce, or kale) to heartier chopped salads (like cucumbers, avocados, or cauliflower). You’re sure to find something that pairs well with your main dish. You can also make any of these salads heartier by adding some chopped cooked bacon!
Hearty Lunch Salads To Make Ahead
If you like to meal prep, one of the easiest ways to do that is to make a chicken salad, tuna salad, or egg salad, made with mayo or avocado and fresh herbs. These types of healthy salads store well in the fridge (just add the avocado the day-of, if using). So, you can enjoy them for several days. Serve them in a lettuce wrap, with your favorite crackers or chips, scooped up with veggies (bell pepper or celery works great!), or spread onto your favorite bread (try almond flour bread for a healthy option!).
Healthy Salad Dressing Ideas
Why bother with the store bought stuff, when homemade tastes so much better? These healthy salad dressing recipes take just a few minutes to prepare, and are well worth the effort. If you don’t have many ingredients on hand, you can also make a simple vinaigrette
TIP: Short on time? Make a simple vinaigrette. Simply whisk together a 3:1 or 4:1 ratio of oil (olive oil or avocado oil) and acid (such as apple cider vinegar, red wine vinegar, or lemon juice), plus salt and black pepper. Feel free to add any seasonings you like, too.
