There is no bad time for a refreshing salad: salads can fit into your diet either as a side dish or as the entire meal–depending on what suits you best. Some people like to stick to the basic tomato-cucumber-lettuce salad with a squeezed lemon and a grain of salt, and that’s fine. But there are SO many interesting and exotic ways to make salad, it’s a shame not to try and mix things up every now and then.

Food blogger Kate from the Cookie and Kate website has a ton of cool salad recipes you can try. Here are three of them!

Chickpea Salad

Kate’s popular chickpea salad recipe is a solid choice if you feel like having salad as a main course. It can also go well as a side dish, but the chickpeas combined with the vegetables create a sense of a full, satisfying meal. Other than chickpeas, it includes celery, pepper, red onion, and parsley, seasoned with lemon and garlic.

Roasted Beet Salad with Goat Cheese and Pistachios

Just looking at the name of this salad is sure to make you drool, so just imagine actually eating it! The sweet-and-savory combination of roasted beet and goat cheese along with pistachios and some fresh greens is a true vegetarian winner.

Green Salad with Apples, Cranberries and Pepitas

Yet another one in the sweet-and-salty category is Kate’s refreshing green salad with Granny Smith apples, cranberries, and pepitas mixed with goat cheese. The salty and creamy goat cheese compliments the sweet-sour green apple slice, and together with the other ingredients, it’s just pure perfection.

It can be challenging to come up with good ideas for side dishes, especially when the weather is warm and everyone is looking for a light option.

It’s important to pair heavier dishes like grilled meat or burgers with light side dishes, and that’s why this light summer salad is a perfect option.

Ingredients

  • 1 large cucumber
  • 2 Roma tomatoes
  • ½ red onion
  • White wine vinegar
  • Olive oil
  • Kosher salt
  • Black pepper

Instructions

Start off the preparation of your salad by washing the tomatoes and the cucumber. Since you’ll leave the skins of these veggies on, it’s important to be sure that they’re clean!

After you’ve done this, dice the cucumber and the Roma tomatoes into relatively small chunks. Set aside.

Next, peel the red onion and then cut it in half. You’ll want to slice the red onion into thin pieces that are small enough to be bite-sized.

Add the diced and sliced vegetables into a bowl and then add about 1 ½ tablespoons of olive oil, or to taste. Make sure that the veggies are coated.

Next, add enough white wine vinegar to cover all of the vegetables as well. The vinegar and olive oil will combine to make the “dressing.”

Once you’ve finished, sprinkle with kosher salt and black pepper. Place in the refrigerator for approximately 30 minutes, and then it’ll be ready to serve.

It can be challenging to come up with good ideas for side dishes, especially when the weather is warm and everyone is looking for a light option.

It’s important to pair heavier dishes like grilled meat or burgers with light side dishes, and that’s why this light summer salad is a perfect option.

Ingredients

  • 1 large cucumber
  • 2 Roma tomatoes
  • ½ red onion
  • White wine vinegar
  • Olive oil
  • Kosher salt
  • Black pepper

Instructions

Start off the preparation of your salad by washing the tomatoes and the cucumber. Since you’ll leave the skins of these veggies on, it’s important to be sure that they’re clean!

After you’ve done this, dice the cucumber and the Roma tomatoes into relatively small chunks. Set aside.

Next, peel the red onion and then cut it in half. You’ll want to slice the red onion into thin pieces that are small enough to be bite-sized.

Add the diced and sliced vegetables into a bowl and then add about 1 ½ tablespoons of olive oil, or to taste. Make sure that the veggies are coated.

Next, add enough white wine vinegar to cover all of the vegetables as well. The vinegar and olive oil will combine to make the “dressing.”

Once you’ve finished, sprinkle with kosher salt and black pepper. Place in the refrigerator for approximately 30 minutes, and then it’ll be ready to serve.
