Lentil Salad Recipe with Herbed Goat Cheese and Balsamic Vinaigrette

April 15, 2020 by Faith 17 Comments

This Lentil Salad Recipe with Herbed Goat Cheese and Balsamic Vinaigrette is a delicious and impressive-looking but easy-to-make salad that packs a ton of nutrition! Do you have a birthday buddy? I do; actually, I have a few. (Give me a shout out if your birthday is also September 30th!) But I was an adult when I first met I someone with the same birthday as mine. (Which is pretty sad, right? That would have been so much fun as a kid!)...

White Bean Roasted Bell Pepper Salad with Maple Dijon Vinaigrette

White Bean Roasted Bell Pepper Salad with Maple Dijon Vinaigrette on Wooden Table

White Bean Roasted Bell Pepper Salad with Maple Dijon Vinaigrette is one of those salads that comes together quick (just in time for a summer gathering!), and is even better the next day (that is, if there’s any leftover). Bean salads are some of my all-time favorite salads, and I find that they’re even better the next day after they’ve had time to marinate in the dressing overnight. I usually like to whip up a homemade vinaigrette to dress my salads because it only takes a couple of minutes, and it tastes so much better than anything bottled! (And bonus, it doesn’t have any preservatives […]...

Sweet Pepper Chickpea Salad with Mint and Honey-Sumac Vinaigrette

September 11, 2017 by Faith 1 Comment

Sweet Pepper Chickpea Salad with Mint and Honey-Sumac Vinaigrette Top View Metal Background One Dish

Sweet Pepper Chickpea Salad with Mint and Honey-Sumac Vinaigrette features the tangy bright citrus-like flavor of sumac tempered with honey. Three kinds of bell peppers add color and crunch, and two kinds of fresh herbs make it something truly special. The thing is, I can happily eat salad like this for lunch any day of the year. It makes no difference to me that summer is (unofficially) over. Setting aside for a minute the fact that it’s always summer in Florida (except for about two weeks in January!), I eat hearty salads like this in the winter as well (or at least I did when […]...

Pineapple Black Bean Salad with Pomegranate Arils and Coconut Chips {Vegan}

February 15, 2016 by Faith 5 Comments

Vegan Pineapple Black Bean Salad with Pomegranate Arils and Coconut Chips is a delicious balance of sweet and savory flavors! Mike and I are currently in London, on a quick little whirlwind of a trip. Before we left when we were putting together a list of things we wanted to see, I asked Mike what he was looking forward to most. His reply: the food. Yeah, that sounds about right....

Detox Roasted Delicata Squash, Pardina Lentil, and Kale Salad with Maple-Pear Balsamic Vinaigrette {Vegan}

January 1, 2016 by Faith 9 Comments

My vegan Detox Roasted Delicata Squash, Pardina Lentil, and Kale Salad with Maple-Pear Balsamic Vinaigrette is as delicious as it is healthy! Happy New Year, dear Readers! I hope you had a wonderful holiday season and took the opportunity to nourish your body and also indulge when you wanted to (life is too short not to enjoy it, am I right?). I’m guessing you’re probably all sugared out and perhaps a bit tired of eating such rich foods…and hopefully ready for some veggie-laden lighter dishes! Let’s start with this salad, which is a full meal in itself....

We all need a few super easy recipes up our sleeve. For nights when you’re throwing chicken or steak on the grill and need an easy side dish, or for days when you want something a little different for lunch that doesn’t require cooking, my Za’atar and Mint Butter Bean Salad is perfect....

Two-Grain Vegetable Salad with Chickpeas and Feta

June 27, 2014 by Faith 6 Comments

“You want to make potato salad again?”, Mike asked me one day. We were headed to a potluck pool party later that day and he was apparently sick of potato salad. (I can’t blame him though; I brought our favorite potato salad to three different parties in the past month! Truth be told, I’m a little sick of potato salad too.)...

Tri-Color Quinoa, White Bean, and Bell Pepper Salad {And a $50 Bob’s Red Mill Gift Card Giveaway}

April 30, 2014 by Faith 117 Comments

When I don’t feel like cooking and I ask Mike to cook for us, we inevitably end up with one of two things for dinner: eggs or foul m’demmas (an Egyptian dish of mashed fava beans with garlic, tomato, parsley, cumin, lemon, and olive oil). Now, I love eggs in all their incarnations, and Egyptian food is always a favorite. But sometimes I wish the hubby would whip up something different, like, oh I don’t know, say a roast chicken with gravy or beef bourguignon. (Wishful thinking, right?)...
