This has to be one of my favourite classics from my childhood. My grand parents lived in Nice and I have heaps of happy memories there…For some of you this may seem like a lot of ingredients to buy and prep but the beauty of this is that it is a perfect salad to make ahead in the summer to accompany a BBQ and the ideal meal to make once ( base) and eat 3 times for lunch with different protein on top. Perfect balance of mediterranean flavours, healthy plant diversity and healthy fats.
A robust and healthy, colourful salad that’s ideal served on its own or even better as a side to salmon or chicken. If serving on its own I would add more protein such as feta or halloumi cheese.
The more summer salad bowl options the better. This spicy cauliflower and courgette salad is so rich in flavours and textures. It can be served on its own or as a side with grilled meat or halloumi. Served with a super simple yoghurt dressing it makes a perfect picnic or BBQ item.
This Greek style salad bowl is a budget friendly crowd pleaser. It’s perfect made ahead for lunch boxes, taking to work etc… It’s also such a quick one to make and bring along to those summer BBQs to serve alongside grilled meats. Perfect balance of mediterranean flavours, healthy plants and fats.

This plant-based bean and avocado salad is one you will adopt and make over and over again. Perfect as a lunch prepped ahead for a couple of days, where you can add a different source of extra protein (boiled egg, feta cheese, leftover roast chicken, poached salmon). It is also a fab salad to make to work alongside those summer BBQs we are all looking forward to!
Bonus, it’s super quick and made from everyday affordable ingredients!
The beauty of this lentil salad is its versatility! Some elements (lentils and salmon) can be added warm, and all can be made ahead or already in the fridge and cupboard so you can assemble this beautiful salad at the last minute. It makes a perfect starter for 4 or a balanced lunch for 2. The lentils and salmon provide a good source of protein and healthy fats to keep you full for longer. This can be made with any type of lentil - but I think those beluga lentils are perfect and sturdy for this salad. Second favourite to use are Puy lentils.
A lovely warm salad that will take you through from Autumn to Spring. I used a jar of Brindisa chickpeas but these can be substituted with tinned to keep the cost down. I have used raw beetroot that I have grated. However you could use a pouch of ready steamed beetroot that is now available from supermarkets.
Regular readers of our blog and social media pages will know that we love a salad even in the colder months. However the key is to add warm elements. There’s nothing worse than a cold crisp iceberg lettuce in the winter! This salad is warm with roasted vegetables, warm lentils and then a punch harissa spicy dressing. So easy to rustle up on a cold winter day. If I am going to roast vegetables then I make a large tray full to be enjoyed over the coming days.
This might not be a salad in the traditional sense since it’s warm - but as the months turn cooler, adding warm elements to your salad makes sense. This is how I prefer to eat my salads in the autumn and winter. Sometimes I add just one warm element - or in the instance of this salad I have added a couple - including a spicy kick that’s guaranteed to warm you through.
