MY BIG HEALTHY DINNER SALAD

June 14, 2022

You’re about the see the most beautiful thing in the world: my big healthy
dinner salad! Oh, yes. It’s delicious and it’s great for summer. This easy
vegetarian salad is full of flavor and freshness and it’s so good for your body
and for your soul. It’s one of the best salads you’ll ever eat.





YOU WILL LOVE THIS HEALTHY DINNER SALAD

Filled with potatoes, feta cheese, avocado, sweet cherry tomatoes, onion,
cucumbers…and believe it or not, even with a few other nutritious
ingredients…this amazing vegetable salad is gluten-free and just great for
dinner or any time of day, really.

It’s:

 * flavorful
 * easy to make
 * super healthy
 * filling and satisfying

You will want to make it again, and again and again! No need for chicken, no
need for fish, no need for anything too fancy, as you’ll see below, these are
all regular, easy-to-find ingredients that you eat on a daily or weekly basis.





WHAT’S INSIDE MY BIG HEALTHY DINNER SALAD

 * Baked Potatoes. This is pretty new to me, but I love adding baked potatoes to
   salads! Although I’ve never been a fan of potato salad, now I love adding
   potatoes to my salads! It brings that filling and savory thing that makes a
   salad good for dinner too.
 * This Feta Appetizer. You’ve got to make this! It takes 3 minutes, 4
   ingredients and is so so good.
 * Fresh Summer Produce. Avocados, cucumbers, tomatoes and lettuce – these fresh
   fruits and vegetables are a great source of antioxidants and vitamins. They
   also help to balance out the intensity of the feta appetizer. (it is pretty
   intense!)
 * Roasted red peppers are so underrated! Make more and give them a go in other
   salads too, you’ll love them!
 * Onions. Can’t make a salad without garlic or onions…Sometimes you just use
   both! They add flavor and are super healthy!
 * Olive oil, lemon juice, salt and pepper. No need for an overcomplicated
   dressing, keep it simple!



HOW TO MAKE THIS BIG HEALTHY DINNER SALAD



First start by peeling, cutting and boiling potatoes for about 10 minutes.

Then spread them over a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and greased with
some olive oil. Add the red pepper that you’d like to roast too. Spray with some
olive oil and sprinkle some salt on top. Bake at 350F/180C for about 10-15
minutes and take out of the oven.



Meanwhile, you can wash and chop the other vegetables for the salad. That’s
tomatoes, lettuce, cucumber and onion. Don’t forget to peel and chop the avocado
too. Add all these ingredients to a large bowl.



You’ll probably have even more time while the potatoes are boiling and baking
and you can use it to make the feta cheese appetizer. Mash feta with garlic,
olive oil and parsley as described in this recipe and add that to the big bowl
as well.



Once the potatoes and roasted peppers are done, let them cool off before adding
them to the salad.



When everything has made it into the bowl, give the salad a good toss and enjoy
immediately!





MANY VARIATIONS FOR THIS HEALTHY DINNER SALAD

Now, we’ve talked about it: this salad is perfect. However, we know, we can get
tired even of perfect. Here are some variations for the salad you might want to
try when that happens:

 * Use spicy roasted chickpeas instead of potatoes. And you don’t need to do a
   lot. Rinse and drain canned chickpeas, add them to a pan with chili powder,
   garlic and mint, stir for 3-4 minutes at medium high heat. They’re ready.
   This is a quicker and more high-protein version for this salad.
 * Roasted Sweet Potatoes. You just might love sweet potatoes! Roast some in the
   oven at 400F with olive oil, add your favorite spices and salt. Then add to
   the salad instead of regular potatoes.
 * Add in roasted eggplant or zucchini. Or both. If you want to make this salad
   more low-carb, you can go for this version by grilling zucchini and eggplant
   or just “roasting” them with a little bit of olive oil on the stove.
 * Add in more protein. If you aren’t vegetarian, you can throw in some chicken
   or shrimp for more protein and to make the salad even more filling.

Of course, if you don’t like or can’t tolerate a certain ingredient – don’t add
it to the salad. If there’s a vegetable you’d like to add – try it! Make it your
own.





CAN YOU REALLY EAT SALAD FOR DINNER?

I know it might sound pretty sad to some, but when done right salads are so
delicious and to sum it up: Of course you can eat salad for dinner. Especially
this amazing meatless salad.

One time I actually met a guy who told me that your tummy will feel horrible if
you eat a salad for dinner (I will not use his exact words, because this is a
post about food). First of all: Way to go about encouraging people to eat more
fresh vegetables…Second: It has never happened to me or anyone I know after
eating salad at the dinner table. And I know a lot of people who eat salad for
dinner, they’re all fine and healthy.
