WAITTTTT! Please don’t run away. I know this is scary [the salad doesn’t even have cheese]. And… it’s another salad. We’ve been on such a salad kick – similar to our soup habit this past winter that we haven’t seemed to kick just yet – but we’re going to get through this together, and I think…

Fajita Chicken Salad with a Chili-Lime Vinaigrette
Y’ALL. Beach season is right around the corner. And I can’t promise one way or the other whether this is going to help your diet, or hurt your diet. I have a LEGIT salad problem. And it basically stems from my inability to stop piling on cheese, avocado, and everything else delicious under the sun…
Roasted Bell Pepper and Mozzarella Summer Salad with an Herb Vinaigrette
So the sous chef and I officially have our summer vegetable garden planted, and we’re very excited – the only thing that more exciting would be if we were able to grow cheese. You know, mozzarella cheese or something. Okay, I’d take any cheese [kind of a cheese-aholic]. But we can’t, so we’ll have to…
BBQ Chopped Chicken Salad
Can you keep a secret from the sous chef? Pretty please [with the recipe for this salad on top]? I have several loves in my life – not just him [I know, shhhhh…..]. There’s our fury four-legged son [yes, to be expected], and then this beautiful bowl of spicy, crunchy goodness [GASP]. I know what…
Mediterranean Chicken Salad with a Red Wine Vinaigrette
Sooooo it’s Thursday, and I have a totally beauteous salad to share with you – bursting with color and texture – that’s going to give you that extra umph to get through the rest of the week. And maybe springtime generally. Because it’s that good. And I know exactly what you’re thinking: this is the best news…
Buffalo Chicken and Jack Cheese Salad
Buffalo wing sauce is basically what my dreams are made of. It’s pretty much sacred to me. As are many condiments – but this one is right up there at the top of my list. Throw it on a salad with a dollop or five of ranch dressing, and I’m in heaven. Oh, and can we…
Black Bean and Corn Salad [20 minute side dish!]
You guys, I have really good news. This salad is SO quick and SO easy to make, it’s a perfect side dish for your wine dinner. And all of those bright, beauteous colors will make your table totally gorgeous, so of course you should make this. Not to mention, deliciosoooo! So we had my parents…
Spring Cobb Salad with a Champagne Vinaigrette
Nothing to see here, friends. Nothing to see here. EXCEPT THIS INSANELY GORGEOUS AND CRAZY DELICIOUS SPRING COBB SALAD. Whew… sorry, had to get that out. This is definitely worth seeing. And even better: worth making. As in, stop everything you’re doing, find a cutting board, pour a glass of wine, fry up some bacon, and…
Grilled Red Onion and Zucchini Salad with a Smoked Balsamic Vinaigrette
I don’t know about you, but I’m still trying to grasp that it’s already March. It feels like we were literally just carving pumpkins and making gingerbread waffles. And yet, here we are, getting our vegetable gardens prepped and dusting off our grills. So, the sous chef is a bit of a grill fanatic and loves…
Rosemary Chicken, Avocado, and Bacon Salad with Honey Mustard
So, the sous chef is absolutely obsessed with this salad – and for good reason. For starters, it’s packed with, um, avocado and bacon… [i.e. a match made in heaven]. I mean, that’s pretty much as close to chocolate and peanut butter, or wine and cheese as you’re going to get. So yeah. Now, I’m…
