Salads don’t have to be bland when you have Royco. So get the greens and let’s get to cooking
Healthy eating doesn’t have to be boring. There are many delicious and easy recipes to make that are healthy, nutritious, filling and enjoyable! When you think of healthy food, chances are you think of salad. Fans of salad are often teased as eating rabbit food, but salads don’t have to be boring and sparse; they can be delicious and filling. Salads are also a lot easier to make than other meals, as most of the ingredients won’t require too much cooking or preparation time.
Tomato Salad
This salad is surprisingly filling and the tomatoes hold onto the flavour of the spices beautifully. The best part about this great-tasting salad is that it is super quick and easy to make, and is perfect served as an accompaniment to meat dishes.
Potato and Pear Salad with a Curry Honey Mustard Dressing
This salad is the heartiest of the bunch! Filled with baby potatoes, nuts and pears, it is a delightful blend of softness and sweetness with a nutty crunch. The firm flavour of Dijon mustard and the sweet tang of honey (or maple syrup for Vegans) in the dressing is what gives this salad its cool, summery taste while the added sweetness complements the curry and spice kick. This salad can be made exclusively for vegetarians as a filling dish, and you can choose not to add curry spice if it will be served to young children.
These are just a few of the easy recipes for delicious salads. The lovely thing about salad is that, if you fill it up with additional complementary ingredients of your choice, it can be hearty and filling as its own meal. In addition to this, salads are a great summer side dish for main meals, lunches and more.
If you’re making a regular garden salad, it can be spruced up into a main meal by simply adding some cooked pasta. Bits of bacon and even chicken can be added to salad dishes to convert them into something tastier and more substantial. The best part of it all? You are getting a good helping of vitamins and minerals while eating something that tastes scrumptious!
