Skinny Greek Vinaigrette

May 6, 2014 Amanda Plott

Ah, greek salads have to be one of my most favorite salads. In fact, I was so set on them that I burned myself out for a good year or two. Sad. I know. How can you burn yourself out on a favorite thing? Well, easily if you eat it every day for nearly half a year!

I'm not sure where it was that I had my first ever greek salad... but I know that it was an eye opening. I think it was even the first time that I'd ever had feta cheese. Another favorite thing that I keep close to my heart. Mm... feta...

Mixed Berry Salad

March 20, 2014 Amanda Plott

This salad has been my lunch regularly for about two weeks now. I just can't get enough of it! Everything I love the most is in there. Fresh berries, blue cheese, spinach, and this amazing Energy Crunch Trail Mix. I found the mix at my local grocery store, HEB. It has soybeans, dried cranberries, almonds & pumpkin kernels.

When it started out, I was using a bottled dressing. But this week I decided to switch it up and make my own - which turned out fabulous and even more healthy!...

Healthified Asian Salad

I love a good asian style salad and yet haven't had one in quite a long time.

Many years ago when I was younger and my mother used to by an asian style salad kit. It was very tasty and one of our favorite things to eat along side any asian dish. Most commonly we would eat it with a bowl of hot and sour soup and some spring rolls. Yummy!...

Healthy Fall Salad

There are all sorts of spring and summer salads out there... but why not enjoy a salad in the fall or winter months?

Instead of working off the winter weight after the fact, just kick it in the pants ahead of time.

This salad is exploding with flavors of fall with baby spinach, bleu cheese, cranberries, pear, and even some pumpkin kernels!

This is a super fun and simple salad that combines some of my favorite traditional summer flavors together in a rather unique way!...

Fiesta Pasta Salad & Green Chile Lime Vinaigrette

June 18, 2013 Amanda Plott

This is ridiculously delicious. And it takes little to no time at all to prepare!

I wanted something cold, light, and veggieful to help combat the heat of the summer after a weekend impromptu tubing adventure down the Comal river with my parents and three year old little lady...
