Fresh and best


Serving a salad with meals is a simple way to pack added nutrients and antioxidants into your diet, and eat to a feeling of satisfaction.

Light on the stomach, salads are an easy option for warm evenings when after-dinner exercise remains on the radar – maybe a gentle game of tennis or walk up the hill. Refreshed and refueled, salads mean your day doesn’t stop after brunch, lunch or dinner.

Diverse ingredients and elements: a base of leafy greens with alternating toppings, a drizzle of fresh flavours each time – a salad’s beauty is in its tailorability. Throw in nuts and seeds, fruit or vegetables, keeping in mind a balanced taste profile, and add grilled chickpeas for protein or a healthy carbohydrate such as whole-wheat pasta to make it more substantial. Use cheese for texture, and to bump up the richness. Play with homemade or storebought dressings, oils, and vinaigrettes for a punch.

With all the right ingredients, throwing together a salad for your potluck plate or to serve at your next dinner party is the opposite of onerous. Find a stunning stonefruit salad and refreshing sweetcorn salad on the following pages, both simple and delicious. With what is in abundance right now, these salads let you cook to the season for effortless entertaining. Serve as side salads, or double the recipe if serving solo.
