2068. Date Dressing Cabbage Salad

It’s sweet, salty, lemony and everything you want in a dressing.

2053. Ajo Blanco Salad

Ajo blanco is traditionally a cold almond soup, but it also makes a fantastic sauce that works wonderfully with this summer salad.

2050. Lebanese Style Mashed Potato Salad.

Come to think of it, bland food coming from the West is mostly depraved in flavor and nutrition. Our "ethnic" foods pack punches of flavor and is truly nutritious, feeding body, mind, and soul.

2033. Sicilian Tuna Bean Salad

Besides a very simple dressing, this Sicilian tuna bean salad has three main ingredients: onion, tuna, and beans. Adding a final sprinkling of freshly chopped parsley really brings it all together. You can further bulk the salad up by adding it to a layer of sliced tomatoes as the base.

2022. Tuna and White Bean Salad

Besides making the dressing, this tuna and white bean salad is little more than an assembly job.

2013. Chicken, Cranberry, and Quinoa Salad

This salad is fresh, crunchy, and actually fills you up, it's not just a side salad that's there for decoration.

2008. Easy Breezy Lettuce Salad

An absolutely ridiculous "trendy" recipe was nagging at me on social media. Everywhere I would turn, it's there, taunting me. They call this "viral" recipe "Life Changing Lettuce" which is what is so ridiculous to me.

1990. Whole Head of Lettuce Salad

This salad is presented as a whole head of romaine lettuce, drenched in a basil dressing, and lightly topped with some spring onion and radish.

1963. Fennel Burrata Salad

This fennel burrata salad was such a refreshing change and is honestly perfect for all seasons.

1881. Autumn Kale Panzanella Salad

A panzanella salad is enjoyable any time of ear and a wonderful excuse to have bread in your salad. A traditionally panzanella consists of height-of-summer tomatoes. This autumnal version is made up of kale and butternut squash. 

1878. Pomegranate Walnut Salad

This is a nice change to the typical salad: it is very chunky with the pomegranate and walnut, and the only "leaf" element is the chopped parsley. 

1868. Candied Walnut Salad

We had this salad on repeat during Ramadan; it was that good. The candied walnuts with the sharpness of the onion combined with the earthiness of the beetroot on a bed of mixed lettuce or peppery rocket leaves could not be beat. 

1818. Warm Cabbage Salad

Roast cabbage is a wonderful way to transform this humble vegetable. While we might be used to a crunch and vibrant cabbage salad or coleslaw in the summer, a warm roasted cabbage salad with delicious cashew tahini dressing is a great version for the winter. 

1807. Caesar Salad on Escalope

 

This is more of a concept than a recipe, and a great one for a wholesome and satisfying lunch at that. 

1800. Honey Chili Haloomi Salad

A new salad presentation is always welcome on my table. Salad is something that can range from a few leaves dressed with vinegar, to a full meat with all food groups in it.

1795. Caesar Salad Dressing

Caesar salad is always something we order when out, but rarely make at home, despite its simplicity. The classic caesar salad is composed of lettuce, croutons, that special dressing, and shaved parmesan. Making it at home allows us to customize it as desired. 

1704. Olive Salad

From the finest Lebanese restaurants, to the corner Turkish kebab shop, versions of this olive salad are aplenty. The secret lies in red capsicum paste and pomegranate molasses. Combined, you have an instant flavor bomb. 

1695. Arabic Salad and Meat Rice Bowl

I can hold an entire conversation on how ancient Arab and European peasant food has now made a comeback as the food of the elite. In the olden days, peasants and farmers would eat the most rustic, local, seasonal, and unprocessed food there was. Refined, processed, and bleached was reserved for the aristocrats and royalty. 

1676. Chunky Greek Salad

After chocolate cake, we must have salad. Greek salad with the classic Mediterranean flavors of feta, kalamata, tomato, cucumber, and onion is a dining addition to which you can't go wrong. 

1666. Orzo Pasta Salad

I happily munched on this salad for multiple iftars during Ramadan. It was a refreshing change from cooked meals, and substantial enough to satisfy cravings and hunger simultaneously.
