This is from my 365 Pasta Recipes cookbook, but I changed the original recipe quite a bit. Food should be attractive and this dish is really pretty and colorful. And easy to make! Cut the veggies really tiny. This is a great dish for work lunches because it is good hot or cold.
Try this soba salad recipe from PBS Food. This Japanese noodle dish has fewer calories than other pastas, and is rich in vitamins and minerals like Thiamin.
This pad Thai-inspired raw food salad is hearty enough to serve as an entree. The flavor really comes from the freshly chopped cilantro, so whatever you do, don't substitute the raw fresh cilantro for dried. It just won't be the same if you do!
The egg salad sandwich recipe I turn to multiple times a week. Light on the mayo, with good quality eggs, chopped celery, and a sprinkling of chives on thinly sliced whole grain bread.
It's not really fair to suggest something so definitive as The Perfect Tomato Salad. When it comes to vegetables, especially, so much of perfect has to do with the vegetable itself. But I had perfect on the brain.
A great Broccoli Bacon Salad recipe made with sunflower seeds, dried cranberries, almonds, bacon, and broccoli. Tossed in a tangy sweet dressing, this recipe is a crowd-pleaser!
