With temperatures rising, there is nothing better than a cool crisp salad. From picnics in the park to patio parties, a salad is always perfect as a side or as a main dish. The vibrant colors of Summer's fruit and vegetables are so appealing, and need I say healthy? There are many beautiful salads to try like a Salmon Citrus Salad with Avocado. and a GrilledPeach, Onion, and Bacon Salad with Buttermilk Dressing. I could hardly stop myself today. The result a mouth watering selection sf sweet and savory Summer salads. Now head to the Farmer's market this weekend, and get ready to chop!

This salad can be made in advance, and actually tastes better the next day. It's healthy with whole grains, protein, fruits, veggies....almost vegan, if you don't add the Feta Cheese. It's all topped with toasted nuts and seeds for a really nice crunch.

No one likes a bland salad. This recipe is the opposite of that! And if you are so inclined, this recipe calls for store bought dressing. I would choose to make my own, but it is up to you.

The first time I ordered a salad with Watermelon Radishes, I was disappointed that there was not any watermelon. :) These beautiful radishes are white on the outside and a beautiful pink on the inside. They have a mild peppery flavor, and make any salad beautiful.

With a salad this colorful, how could you not want to dig in? The recipe calls for broiling the salmon. I suggest that you grill it instead.
How Sweet It Is
Here's how to get beautiful veggies and fresh, healthy meals in the palm of your hand.
Sur La Table
A fabulous way to celebrate the season. Grilling fresh fruit intensifies the sweetness and natural fruity essence. A creamy yogurt dressing with lime and honey tops it all off. What a colorful addition to any table! Sur La Table happens to have the perfect rectangular platter to serve this salad on, in two sizes and it is now on sale.

We just grilled peaches with chicken on kebabs this week. Oh my goodness are they good! This recipe is delightfully southern. Do you see those strips of bacon?

This recipe had me at "Warm Bacon Dressing." Have you ever put salt on watermelon? I grew up doing it. The salt makes the watermelon juicier. This salad goes to the next level with a slightly sweet but still savory ingredient list.

This recipe is inspired by a steak salad on the menu at Keen's Steakhouse in NYC. It's made with rib eye steak, fingerling potatoes and more. I love how it is stylishly presented. Have your guests make their own!

So I found my favorite, right here! A simple three ingredient dressing tops fresh ahi tuna, mango and avocado on a bed of spring mix. A bowl of heaven!
These just may be what your dishes have been missing. An excellent vinegar is the perfect way to brighten any dish. With flavors like Rosé, Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, and Cider, these make a fabulous gift for your favorite chef or hostess.

A beautiful blend of sweet and savory flavors makes this one tasty salad. The chicken is marinated before char grilling. Oh Yum!

I love a good Panzanella Salad. Add some Mexican flavors to it, and I will be in bread heaven. In a nutshell, this salad utilizes the grill to char squares of sweet cornbread chunks.
