Power through the day with one of these deliciously satisfying salads.
Falafel Salad with Lemon-Tahini Dressing
Deep-fried falafel can be a total grease bomb.
But these pan-seared falafel still get crispy in just a few tablespoons of oil with equally satisfying results.

If you’re able to’t find a hearty mix, go with broccoli slaw or shredded Brussels sprouts.
The extra dressing is delicious served with grilled vegetables.
And you’re able to make it in the same bowl you serve it in, minimizing cleanup!

Tex-Mex Pasta Salad
A light and creamy green-salsa dressing highlights this easy pasta salad with Southwestern flavors.
Couscous & Chickpea Salad
Cooked couscous and canned chickpeas come together in this quick lunch salad.
The basil vinaigrette makes it taste anything but basic!
When in season, we recommend adding fresh chopped tomatoes for a spin on tabbouleh.
We love the crunch of the sunflower seeds and the unexpected flavor of roasted peppers.
If you’re not a fan of cilantro, mix in freshly chopped basil or dill instead.
Enjoy for lunch or dinner.
