Thai chicken and watermelon salad
No matter the season, we will always make space for a fresh salad on the table. To make it more comforting for autumn, we added some Thai chicken to this salad.
Roast butternut salad with butternut seed sprinkle
Beautiful squashes are coming into season soon and there’s no reason you shouldn’t use the whole veggie. A butternut salad is great for autumn and winter because it can be served slightly warm and still taste super delicious. This salad is easy to make, makes use of rich, comforting ingredients such as pear and blue cheese, and doesn’t waste a scrap of butternut.
Carrot salad and carrot-top pesto
Waste not, want not! This is wonderfully creative option to serve your guests as a starter or a side option. You can leave the carrot salad slightly warm for the colder months and save when you buy your carrots with their tops still attached from your local market. And if you have some leftover, you can add them to your salad as leafy greens. They are especially delicious sautéed with olive oil and garlic.
Couscous tabbouleh with chickpeas and corn
This meat-free meal is packed with plant protein and plenty of nutrients as well! And as if a grain salad for dinner isn’t delicious enough, toast your couscous in a frying pan for a few minutes before cooking for an intense nutty flavour that will carry your couscous tabbouleh to new heights.
