22 Best Salad Recipes Everyone Will Want to Eat

I absolutely love salad recipes because they let the fresh, seasonal fruits and vegetables shine. These ingredients are so flavorful on their own that it doesn’t take much effort to turn them into a delicious meal.

During cold winter evenings, I enjoy creating vibrant salads with root vegetables and hearty greens to bring some color to the table. And on warm summer days, when I’d rather be outside, I opt for simple yet flavorful summer salads for lunch or dinner.

Whether you’re trying to incorporate more plant-based meals into your diet or simply want to switch up your salad routine, you’ll find plenty of inspiration in the recipes below. From classic green salads to pasta salads and more, these recipes are perfect for potlucks, dinner sides, or as standalone meals.
