Summer Salads

There’s less than two months left of summer! It’s amazing how fast it flies. With little time left, make the most of the delicious vegetables and fruit available this season. When it’s too hot to turn on the stove you can easily throw together one of these salads! I’ve found some great recipes using summer specialties.

All of my friends get so excited when summer rolls around. The reason has nothing to do with the warm weather or vacation time. They are obsessed with Panera’s Strawberry Poppyseed Salad, exclusive during the summer season. It seems everyone I know loves adding strawberries to their salads! This recipe include fetta cheese and a handful of healthy almonds.

Has anyone noticed the recent craze over avocados? It seems like every restaurant has added it to their menu and can’t stop advertising it. I’m going to hop on the avocado bandwagon since it seems to be so popular this summer. Avocado is the perfect addition to a regular chicken salad.

This recipe is a take on pasta salad except it is placed in a hollowed tomato. Fresh tomatoes can’t be beat during the summer so why not use it as a small bowl?
