I like veggies and salad. And while I am not a strict vegetarian any more… I still love veggies. Given the choice 9 times out of 10 I will reach for grilled veggies, a salad, fruit, you name it. So here are some salads I made. My family loves them and devours them. I hope you and your family loves them too.
Pear Walnut salad
This is a pear, walnut salad. I made rice and lemon pepper tilapia to go with it.
If you have have never had a savory salad with fruit in it? If you have not I really suggest you try it. The savory flavors and slight sweetness of the fruit are a great compliment.
This is a vegan, gluten free, dairy free salad. It is healthy nutritious and delicious. I hope you get a chance to try it.
