12 Sensational Summer Salad Recipes

June 23, 2016 by FaveHealthyRecipes

When I go to summer parties and potluckSensational Summer Saladss, I couldn’t care less about what the main dish is. I’m always more focused on the side dishes, and when the weather heats up it means summer salads! I actually have an obsession with salads. Seriously, my entire plate will be filled with salad at parties. Especially if there is any kind of pasta salad because, well, carbs. Mixing cooked pasta with chopped veggies and a vinaigrette is my lunch most days. (Side note: If you haven’t jumped on the “pasta salad for lunch” bandwagon, then you’re missing out.)

Anyway, on to these summer salads. Any of these salads would be a huge hit at any of your summer parties and potlucks. So now if your host or hostess responds with “Whatever you would like!” when you ask what you can bring, you have an entire list of incredible salads to choose from. Don’t bring dessert; everyone brings dessert. Summer salads are the best simply because most of our favorite salad ingredients are in season in the summer. Take advantage of the few short months of warm weather with fresh fruit and vegetables while you can!

This list is pretty long, so there’s bound to be a salad recipe that suits your tastes. These easy salad recipes are simply sensational! Some of these potluck recipes are hearty enough to be served alone as a meal and would even make a fantastic easy lunch or dinner for you and your family.
