Best Healthy Salad Recipes + Vegetable Chopper Kitchen Tool
Amazon Must-Have for Salad Lovers!
Checkered Chef Mezzaluna Salad & Vegetable Chopper
Salad shortcut alert! Mezzaluna-style choppers like this allow you to cut up your salad ingredients right in the bowl. Plus, since it has a double-blade design, you can chop twice as fast! We love a time saver. Just give fresh ingredients a bowl-bound chop, and pop the chopper in the dishwasher for easy cleanup.Summer Chopped Salad
This recipe is full of healthy & flavorful fresh ingredients: beans, beets, loads of veggies, and more. And look at that protein content! You can add your favorite dressing… but it tastes pretty great without it!
Top of the Chops BBQ Chicken Salad
Say hello to a perfect meal. The tangy sauce balances so well with the jicama, corn, and fresh herbs. This recipe was inspired by all the great BBQ chicken salads on restaurant menus—why shouldn’t we enjoy the good stuff at home?
Crispy Buffalo Chicken Salad
Cook up the chicken, assemble the salad fixings, and then chop it all up. We decided to add crumbled blue cheese + ranch dressing for the best of both worlds, but if you’re not a blue-cheese fan, swap it out for your cheese of choice.
Beets Me Shredded Chicken Salad
It’s another flavor-packed combo! The Granny Smith apple and dried cranberries taste amazing with the feta, beets, and sweet onion. P.S. If you already have cooked chicken in your fridge, use 3 oz. of that in place of the raw chicken the recipe calls for.
In-N-Outrageous Animal-Style Salad
Cheeseburger fans! This salad is basically a bunless freeform burger, chopped up with toppings and extra veggies. The recipe calls for meatless crumbles, but you can also use cooked ground beef, turkey, or chicken if that’s what you have on hand.
Chicken Taco Salad
We all love tacos, but the biggest advantage this salad has over actual tacos? It won’t fall apart in your hands. Chop up your go-to taco fillings into a nice big salad, complete with taco sauce and sour cream… YUMMMM.
Crispy Chicken Salad with Honey Mustard Dressing
Salads with crispy fried chicken are kinda irresistible, no? Bake up (or air fry) your faux-fried chicken to top off this classic salad combo. This recipe also comes complete with a single DIY portion of honey mustard dressing!
Strawberry Feta Spinach Salad with Chicken
You may have noticed by now that we’re big on fruit + cheese combos, and lucky for us there are a lot of delicious ways to enjoy them! Instead of slicing your strawberries, feel free to chop ‘em with the rest of the ingredients.
Margherita Grilled Chicken Salad
Jarred roasted red peppers add flavor depth to your salad without adding any cook time. And since we pretty much always have light string cheese around, chopping one up into a salad is a solid way to repurpose your snacks.
Chick-a-licious Fruity Green Salad
Ready to graduate to a whole new level of fruit-topped green salads? This recipe calls for pear, peach, AND blueberries! The vinaigrette brings it all together, and the pistachios bring crunch & richness. Bonus: This recipe feeds two, so you can either share with a dining companion or save the second serving for the next day.
Chew on this:
Tomorrow is National Waffle Day (August 24th)! Fire up your waffle iron for some Saturday morning waffles… maybe with a chocolate & peanut butter twist?
