Beautiful. Bright. Glorious. But now let’s talk about this salad. This mess is straight up (now tell me) out of control. First of all, look at that color! Don’t you want to punch it in the shin? I don’t eat enough Israeli couscous. Truthfully, I kind of forgot about it, until I spotted it in […]

Shrimp Po’ Boy Panzanella
Also known as, salad night just got awesome. Do you salad night? I say it like it’s a verb. But it is. Salad night. It’s an action! We salad night once or twice a week, normally on Monday nights. I’ve been trying to jazz it up lately (don’t tell anyone I just said jazz it […]
Greek Lentil and Tuna Salad
It’s Health Food Thursday! Because that’s a totally real thing that I just made up right now three seconds ago. This is a Greek Lentil and Tuna salad, yewguyz. And I’m kind of flipping out over it. A little while back I was chitty chat chattin’ with you about what you’d like to see more […]
Blackened Chicken Caesar Salads with Avocado
Ask, and you shall receive. Did I tell you we make a version of this EVERYSINGLEMONDAY? We make a version of this everysinglemonday. Sometimes Aaron coats the chicken with mustard and panko and bakes it. Sometimes we simply throw a little salt and pepper on ’em and pop ’em on the grill. And sometimes, we […]
Thai Cashew Chicken Salad
Is it too early in the week for a salad? What if it has cashews in it? And the dressing has cashew butter in it? Still too early? I’d been on the phone with my sister the other day after a birthday lunch date she had with my mom. “What did you eat?” I demand. […]
Kale Caesar Salad with Grilled Chicken
Thiiiiiiiiiiis. I’m almost speechless. I said almost, don’t get too giddy. This kale caesar salad is straight up madness. First of all, it’s kale. Dark, earthy Tuscan kale, sliced into the tiniest ribbons and fist bumped for good measure. Then we have brioche croutons. An idea that comes from a Saturday morning PBS/Martha-thon. Then we […]
Curried Chicken and Lentil Pita Pockets
You’ve gotta pick a (pita) pocket or twoooo. If you get that reference we were meant to be together. Just don’t tell Aaron. Pita pockets! With like, this super light curried chicken salad and lentil mixture. And grapes, and chopped almonds, and lotsa herbies. But you don’t have to say herbies if you don’t want. […]
Thai Three-Bean Salad
I’ve been just Thai-ing to show you this. You’re already mad at me. I created this recipe for my in-laws’ huge annual 4th of July pool party in Fayetteville. I was absurdly excited about it, until I set it down on the serving table next to exactly 38426534 other salads. Blast! It was still good […]
Major Lump Crab Salad
And I mean may.jer. It would be an injustice to the world if I talked about anything besides the splendor that is this salad. It’s just so majory majorful. You’ve had lump crab before, right? Please tell me you have. I know we’ve gone over this time and time again and you want to throw […]

Bonjouuuuur mon amiiii, merci pour toi, fermer la porrrrrrte. I’m obviously awesome at French. I took four years in school. I was even the teacher’s aid one year. FERMER LA JEALOUSYYY. So it’s a big holiday week and guess what!! We’re eating clean. Is this sacrilegious? Je ne sais pas. I also realize I’m calling […]
