Julienne apple and carrot with yoghurt dressing. I like to have this fruity and crunchy summer salad with baked chicken, grilled salmon, fresh greens, sandwiches and so on. I used cottage cheese this time but I also like it with feta cheese on top!

A delicious refreshing salad oh did I mention that it is vegetarian!!!

I created this recipe to serve with tandoori chicken, "Kids Love It -Tandoori Chicken Made with Chicken Drumsticks") to add more colours to the dinner table.The amount of salt needed will change depending on the sweetness of the apple. Please taste-test it and adjust the amount of salt. Recipe by cherissa

A lovely recipe

Have you ever bought a bag of carrots at Costco? So many carrots, so few ideas. My grandson said "let's cook Pappaw!" He's only 3 years old and I wanted him to have a good cooking experience that was easy enough for him to do. I looked in the fridge and saw this humongous bag of carrots. So, we got the food processor out and started to work. He loved it. It was easy, tasty, and a great experience for a 3 year old. When finished he said "Pappaw, I mixed it all by myself!" A Kodak moment for sure.

I built this cold tuna luncheon salad on a base of sour cream, mixed with green apple and green vegetables. I made Smetana sour cream , which is creamier, worth making at home when you have time, otherwise store bought fresh sour cream works well too.More refreshing than mayonaise based salads. Make small portions, spoils quickly.#GlobalApron

This is a quick appetizer salad of fresh greens that goes well with gourmet dinners. In winter, a slice of sweet apple or mango or orange is all it takes to bring summer back.

April-May is the best time to plant summer beets here, tender and ripe in July, they get woody after that. We plant Detroit Red, a traditional deep red round beet, and eat the tender tops in salads. Summer beets cook quicker and are milder than winterbeets, they glaze well and pair well with mandarins in summer dinner salads. The beet juice makes a special salad dressing.#GoldenApron23

Yummy and healthy Mediterranean side dish

This is a twist on carrot salad. I needed something a bit different and began experimenting with other ingredients. When left to marinate the flavors marry perfectly!

Ten minute cold salad from raw potato to plate, made with fresh ingredients that dont spoil.The outdoor summer version is a light one you can take camping, or to the beach or on a picnic while it stays fresh.The winter salad version of this salad stays fresh and is more filling, using homemade mayonnaise or homemade greek yoghurt.

This salad is indispensable for me along with the potato salad whenever I prepare stuffed tomatoes and deviled eggs.But it is also an excellent combination with any kind of meat.
