Now that it’s officially spring, it’s time for cleansing, beautiful food! Cleansing foods often mean salad, but sometimes we struggle with salads. During spring and summer, we want to eat more fresh food… but with meat-loving family members to keep happy, salads for dinner can be tricky if you are short on time or want to keep things vegetarian. Dinner salads that are vegetarian or vegan need to be hearty and interesting!
Despite skipping the chicken in this cobb salad, there are so many fresh ingredients to keep this salad full and flavorful. Lots of avocado, tomatoes and onions are traditional to cobb salads but give great texture. Yellow peppers replace cheese for a dairy-free salad option and homemade wheat croutons give extra crunch. We finished this salad off with some sweetness and tang from our homemade Healthy Honey Mustard Dressing. No cooking and only fresh raw food makes this vegetarian salad totally easy and completely delicious!
Enjoy vibrate health and energy with this cobb salad! With all the wonderful produce available now, this is the time to enjoy healthy foods in such a satisfying way! Enjoy!

I definitely don’t eat salads as often as I’d like to, mainly because my boyfriend isn’t a fan (ugh, picky meat eaters!). I think this salad might win him over though!
Annie says
Haha, yes, I know that situation well. This salad did win my husband over, so worth a shot. :) The real secret is the honey mustard dressing. ;)
