Salads

Chickpeas are high in protein and are a great substitute for meat dishes. They are also a rich source of vitamins, minerals and fiber.

This is a great salad for get-togethers - it looks and tastes amazing. 

This is my absolute favourite salad - I make it most days. The pumpkin seed oil makes this dish extra special.

Pomegranates are a powerhouse of good nutrition. Very high in antioxidants they support your immune system, lower cholesterol and blood pressure and have anti-cancer properties. 

One of my favorite dishes - and a good way to use up left-over couscous from the night before.

Cabbage is a cruciferous vegetable said to prevent cancer, lower the risk of heart disease and help protect against radiation.

Quinoa is a wonderful and versatile grain - it's gluten free, rich in protein, fiber, vitamins and minerals. Adding mozzarella and cherry tomatoes makes for a perfect Italian-style salad. 

Love this salad! It can either be a side dish or a main fare.

Fantastic salad - also tastes nice if you change the mozzarella to shaved parmesan

Use this is a complete meal or as a side dish.

Despite it's name, buckwheat is not a wheat and is gluten free. It is a seed of a plant grown in Asia and is high in proteins, fiber, minerals and antioxidants.

The combination of carrots, apple, celery and the sweetness of raisins and manuka honey makes this salad a fabulous addition to any meal.

Colorful salad that is super healthy and tastes great as well. You can pretty much add any vegetables that you have to it. 

Perfect lunch for a hot day

Love the mint flavor in this salad! I also love garlic - so I add a couple extra cloves to this recipe.
