Deli salads are great for the spring and summer. They’re versatile, light, and refreshing. But sometimes you just want more. Yes, a cold salad may be nice on a warm day, but you can’t beat a warm, hearty meal. That’s why AllFreeCasseroleRecipes introduces you to your new favorite food: HOT salads.
Hot salads are the best of both worlds. You can feel (slightly) healthier eating a lighter meal, yet you’ll still feel satisfied by how filling these hot salads are. Many of these are new versions of recipes for traditional deli salads. Think chicken salad, taco salad, or potato salad. Even if you’re not a fan of cold salads, you’ll like these.
These fusions between salads and casseroles would be excellent choices to bring to a potluck, party, or even a picnic. They would also be good for lunches, side dishes, light dinners, snacks, appetizers, etc. The possibilities are endless with these delicious hot salads.
