The Art of Creating Summer Salads



Summer Salad Recipes FAQ
What's a good base for a summer salad?
Summer salads shine with lighter greens like rocket, spinach or mixed baby lettuce. You can also build them around grains such as quinoa or couscous, or make a hearty base with pasta or potato salad.
How can I make a summer salad a satisfying main meal?
Add a good source of protein to make it more filling. Grilled chicken, prawns, halloumi and feta all work well, and grains like quinoa or bulgur wheat add extra substance. Healthy fats like avocado also help create a more satisfying meal.
What fruits go well in a summer salad?
Plenty of fruits pair beautifully with summer salads. Watermelon with feta is a classic match, while sliced peaches or nectarines go well with halloumi. Berries, including strawberries, add a bright and sweet contrast to fresh greens.
What's a good, light summer salad dressing?
A simple vinaigrette is ideal. Use a '3-to-1' ratio of extra virgin olive oil to an acid like lemon juice or white wine vinegar, then add a little mustard, salt and pepper. It’s fresh, balanced and won’t overpower your ingredients.
What are the best salads for a BBQ?
Classic sides are always a hit. A creamy potato salad, a zesty pasta salad or a crunchy coleslaw pair perfectly with grilled meats and veggies and hold up well outdoors.
How do I keep my salad fresh for a picnic?
Keep the dressing separate until you're ready to eat. Store the salad in an airtight container and pack the dressing in a small jar. Dress the salad just before serving to prevent the leaves from going soggy.
