8 Salad Recipes To Eat When You Feel Seriously Disgusting

8 Salad Recipes To Eat When You Feel Seriously Disgusting

WE FINALLY MADE IT TO CHARLESTON. I’m so glad to be here. The sun is shining. The palm trees are blowing in the wind. We’re unpacking boxes. And I finally have my kitchen gear and supplies again!

I did my best to keep up with the plant-eating along the way here…in the hotels, at my in-laws, and in the weird cottage on the beach (it was like a room that Bob from Twin Peaks would hang out in). But not having my own kitchen (or at times, a kitchen at all) and my wellness necessities (hello, Vitamin D) made me feel a little off my game. Not as peppy. Not as glowy. And feeling just a little gross. 

Now that I have my own kitchen again, all I want to do is eat mounds of fruits and veggies. Blend them. Roast them. Sauté them. And eat them raw in salads. SALADS. I missed my big salads. And now that I can make them again, I’ve rounded up some of the best ones from around the web that I can’t wait to make. Please share your favorites with me too! 

1. The Everyday Superfood Salad from The First Mess
2. Kale Citrus Salad from Minimalist Baker
3. Granny Smith, Beet + Arugula Salad from YumUniverse
4. Pomegranate, Quinoa, and Kale Salad from Mariano’s for OPP
5. Superfood Crunch Salad With Balsamic Apple Vinaigrette from Oh She Glows 
6. Fattoush Salad With Za’atar from My New Roots
7. Shaved Rainbow Carrot Salad from The Forest Feast
8. Kimchi Kale Salad from Sweet Potato Soul

Also, if you’re feeling like you’d just rather watch a marathon of Shark Tank than chop and shave a whole bunch of vegetables…check out my 8 Favorite Salad Dressings and just toss them with a bag of romaine and whatever random veggies you have in the fridge.

    Thanks for this reference list Jessica! It’s perfect timing because lately I’ve felt like bleh and its because I’ve been coming home and eating tortilla chips and salsa after an hour commute and then not having the spark to make actual food for dinner until like 8pm. Which leads me to eating a bowl or cereal or a grilled *cheese* (daiya). Smh. So thanks so much – this has given me some inspiration. xx

      Pataveia, I get in that rut too! Instead of chips and salsa…celery and almond butter. I just stand there with the fridge open and dip after dip and then don’t even feel like making dinner. Glad you liked these salads! They all look so good.

    Oh, I needed this post. It is so easy to get trapped in the unhealthy rut and sometimes all it takes is a giant bowl of salad to get you feeling right again.
    I discovered your blog in the strangest way. Scott, the guitar player from City in Colour or Alexisonfire (it was a few years ago), was the bartender of a local joint near me. I was throwing a Valentines Day dinner and my friends invited him over for it. He introduced me to your site that night when I told him I dabbled in vegan blogging. Anyways, he was crazy nice about the dinner and I am so glad I found your site when I did. It has become a great resource to me. Your realness, sincereness, and positivity keep me glued to your site. All the best with the book!

      Jessica – such a small world! I met Scott a few times through a friend in Chicago. He was the sweetest! I checked out your site…I think you do more than just “dabble” with blogging. Your stuff is beautiful! Thanks for this sweet message and excited to keep checking out your site.

    You know you’re a lazy-ass “cook” when you misread that last sentence as “toss them IN a bag of romaine” and you’re like, GENIUS! LESS WORK!

    So. Thank you in advance for my new salad dressing technique. You’re the best.
