Salad Meals - Emily Ezekiel

Salads are more than just leaves. Take the best of seasonal produce and make bowls, boards, and jars of salad to enjoy throughout the year.Salad Meals shows you how to eat the rainbow of fruit and vegetables all year long with delicious and satisfying meals. Organized by season to highlight what is freshest and most delicious at that moment, Salad Meals offers a more sustainable approach to shopping, and one that is better for your overall health. A few of the over 75 recipes include: Farro salad with shredded kale and pickled onions, roasted root vegetable salad served over whipped feta, roast salmon salad with crunchy greens, and a summer berry salad with maple, lemon and vanilla. In addition to delicious main course salads, Salad Meals introduces readers to the concept of salad boards (a riff on the popular snack and charcuterie boards), which are sure to impress at dinner parties. And for busy workdays, ideas for salad jars to take to work for desk lunches are healthy and time saving. Hearty salads use the addition of grains and proteins for the colder months, and lighter salads take advantage of fleeting spring and summer produce for the warmer months. Salad Meals is sure to expand your idea of what salad can be, and how it can delight.
