One thing I love about the summer weather is that you can never tire of salads. If you think about it, the variety you can have is endless, cold meats, rice, pasta salads, boiled eggs, anything really can be thrown together to make a yummy salad.
Leftovers is another great thing to add to salads. For instance, I had some leftover stir fry teriyaki beef, so added it to some mixed leaves, a serving of cheddar cheese, a bit of sweetcorn relish and a drizzle of fat free ranch dressing. The result was delicious:

Another thing I love to add to salads, is a bit of fruit – a sliced up crisps apple, or even some red seedless grapes are delicious mixed into a salad. This is one I did yesterday – crisp romaine lettuce, cucumber, serving of cheddar cheese, some ham, sliced crisp pink lady apple, 2 tablespoons of fat free croutons and a drizzle of fat free ranch dressing. Again another delicious salad and so so easy and quick to put together:

So next time you are thinking what to have for lunch. Just look in your fridge and cupboards and see what you can throw together to make a quick and delicious salad too. 😉

Hello Siobhan,
We have been using your recipes for sometime now and we find them very tasty yet healthy and low in syns!! Thank you for that. Keep up the excellent work!
Our two daughters are vegetarian and my husband and I eat a maximum of two times a week meat or fish, so after a year of using your recipes I sometimes find it difficult to find something new to cook. We would appreciate some more vegetarian dishes, maybe using tofu or beans that you find in mediterranean cuisine. Also salads with more green vegetables and low syn dressings would be very welcome.Thanks once again. Rita

Hi Rita, thank you so much for your lovely words. I will for sure work on adding some more meat free recipes. Thank you
