  • Ginger-Garlic Tofu Salad

      Folks, it’s been a really long time since I posted a salad recipe.  It’s because I haven’t been eating them nearly as much as usual either….oops.  My normal salad appeal has just not been there lately.  I’ve had plenty of veggies – roasted, in soups, cooked into all the curry dishes I’ve been eating…

  • Sweet Curried Carrot Slaw

    I have a couple friends who raved about this curry carrot salad at the Co-Op in Sacramento.  They love it.  Crave it.  Tell me I must must must try it. I went.  They were out.  A few times. Finally I got this salad a couple weeks ago. Meh.

  • Truffled Strawberry Salad

    The first salad for my June Salad-a-Day Challenge is very special to me.  We had a little reunion this weekend.  We had a little rift after I gave up goat cheese to become vegan.  He’s finally come around with an equally wonderfully vegan version.  So I decided we could make it work after all. This…

  • June Salad Challenge + Basil Gnocchi + Roasted Asparagus Salad

      Ohmygosh it’s June already! Can you believe it? I am done with all the posts about myself, but I really did enjoy having a blogging challenge last month.  This month I’m giving myself a new challenge: a salad a day.  I always aim for a salad a day, but it’s usually just a goal…

  • Avocado-Cilantro Dressing & Tex-Mex Salad

    Happy holiday, lovelies!  I have a yummy salad recipe for you today that I’ve been procrastinating because I have absolutely nothing to create a good intro with.  It’s not inspired by an old favorite, I don’t have any interesting anecdote about how I created it.  It’s just a really good salad.  With an awesome creamy…

  • Pizza Roll Salad

    Pizza Roll Salad

    You know those days when you really want to indulge in something unhealthy, but you really shouldn’t? Well, I’ve taken to putting a small portion of that unhealthy craving on a salad.  Every time, my craving is satisfied and I have zero regrets about a small indulgence when it’s on top of a yummy loaded…

  • Grapefruit, Avocado & Mango Fruit Salad

       Here’s a simple recipe for a delicious light fruit salad.  We’re starting to see some glimpses of spring around here – lots of trees blossoming, a couple nice sunny warm days, and more fruit filling up the produce aisle.  With that comes spring recipes!

  • Spicy Lemongrass Miso Salad Dressing

    A restaurant remake success that I could just cry over! A Sacramento restaurant called Lemongrass Asian Grill & Noodle Bar makes the most amazing spicy salad dressing ever.  You know how restaurants give you an excessively large container of dressing for your takeout salad?  Like, well over 1/4 C of dressing.  Well, I eat all…
