Craveable, Colorful, and Satisfying Salads

Tip 1 Prep Ahead
One of the most daunting parts of making a salad
is the rinsing and chopping of everything. One
way to take that out of the equation is to rinse
and dry everything right after you get it from
the grocery store.

Tip 2 Choose Your Base Wisely
The base for a salad sets the tone for the whole
meal. Season loves to do a mixture of a crunchy
lettuce and a leafy lettuce to get different
textures and flavors involved. For some crunch,
we throw in sliced romaine, iceberg lettuce, or
even super thinly sliced cabbage or Brussels
sprouts. For the leafy greens, we love arugula
and baby spinach because theyre no-prep but red
leaf lettuce, endive, butter lettuce, and kale
work great. You can also mix in a grain like
brown rice or quinoa for extra fiber and protein.

Tip 3 Get Creative with Your Vegetables
This is where your salad claims its flavor
profile. Choose vegetables that excite you and
make the salad make sense. For example, if youre
going for an Italian vibe you may choose
tomatoes, peppers, frozen artichoke hearts, and
olives. Or for an Asian salad you could try
frozen edamame, carrots, and bok choy.

Tip 4 Take care with your dressing
We are big on vinaigrettes. Dont get us wrong,
creamy dressings certainly hit the spot from time
to time, but vinaigrettes are completely
customizable and simple to make. We use a 12
ratio 1 part vinegar to 2 parts olive oil. From
there, you can add in whatever you choose
garlic, shallot, spices, dijon mustard, and even
a small squeeze of honey are great additions.

Tip 5 Make it Satisfying
If you made it this far, were sure that your
salad will taste amazing, but will it keep you
satisfied? Thats when you should think about
including protein. For a really simple fix, drain
and rinse canned beans and add them to your
salad. For another plant based option, slice
fresh avocado. It adds a satisfying and creamy
component to your salad.
