I adore butter lettuce and I adore this salad. It’s a funny story though… the whole inspiration for this salad was a bottle of raspberry red wine vinegar that I bought thinking it was regular old red wine vinegar, put in something that should definitely NOT taste like raspberry and […]

Southwest Salad with Jalapeño Lime Vinaigrette and Honey Butter Cornbread Croutons
When life gives you leftover cornbread… well it wasn’t “life” exactly, it was my mother-in-law who made us some amazing cornbread and because it was too good to waste I did what any sensible person would do… I fried it in butter and threw it in a Southwest Salad! This […]
Strawberry Mango Avocado Salad with Cilantro Lime Vinaigrette
I’m starting to wonder if my love of salads is more a love of salad dressings. I mean, a Strawberry Mango Avocado Salad is a delicious thing in and of itself, but this dressing… I am all about the dressing… You know what? I’m eating my veggies. All is good. […]
Snap Pea & Arugula Salad with Lemon Dill Dressing

Spicy Kale Salad with Pineapple, Coconut & Ginger Miso Dressing
Sick of kale salads yet? I’m not. Never will be. I love it so much I could eat it every day. In any form. Kale rocks! But, for the haters… This is not your average kale salad. Bright sweet pineapple, loads of texture from the cashews & coconut and spicy […]
Sweet Kale Farro Salad with Feta & Bacon
This salad was born out of my deep hatred of washing lettuce and also my strong dislike of chopping up Kale. Listen, just because I love to cook doesn’t mean I love everything about it. Dishes, for example. Who needs that??!! I also want things just how I want them. […]
