    Salads

Here you'll find more unique salad recipes, like this cinnamon dressed fruit salad and my favorite easy lettuce and walnut salad!

    • an overhead shot of chopped caprese salad on a white plate. on the distressed white wood table around it are two slices of tomato, a bunch of fresh basil, a small bowl of salt, and two empty avocado skins.
