Sensational Salads - by Kathy Kordalis (Hardcover)

Book Synopsis

Over 75 vibrant and nutritious salads for every occasion, from sides to substantial main plates.

There's so much more to salad than just a few salad leaves, tomato, and cucumber on a plate. They are so easy to elevate and take to the next level by experimenting with different flavors and additional ingredients. Taking inspiration from around the world from Mediterranean olive rich recipes to Asian-inspired noodle salads, this collection of wholesome recipes will encourage even the most prolific salad avoider. Salads can be light and fresh, such as the classic Tuna Niçoise or hearty and filling such as Grilled Chicken Topped Tabbouleh. Filling out salads with grains and pulses will ensure your nutrition levels are topped up and you avoid the afternoon stomach rumbles. They are also the ultimate lunch-on-the-go being easy to pack into containers for a portable lunch or picnic. With more people aspiring to eat healthier diets, and with such a large variety of fresh and interesting ingredients now readily available, there has never been a better time to experiment and discover new salad favorites.
