Sweet and spicy coleslaw is a quick and easy salad that goes with so many meals. You can use any variety of the usual coleslaw ingredients if you like, but I used napa cabbage and radicchio. A great combination of flavors and gives great eye appeal.
Lime Garlic Green Cauliflower
Lime Garlic Green Cauliflower is simply what the name describes. Green cauliflower sautéd in garlic and fresh lime juice and a sprinkle of parsley for garnish.
Orange Cointreau Salad
I always appreciate a good salad, and I’m sure you do too. Today’s orange Cointreau salad will evoke more than appreciation though. Let me tell you, this salad should be heralded. It’s simple, sexy, and sensationally tasty.
Escovitch Carrots
I like carrots, but when they’re part of a holiday meal, I think they should have a little pizzazz. Hence the creation of escovitch carrots. It’s a sweet and sour side dish, which is so interesting alongside other holiday dishes.
Curried Turkey Endive Salad Bites
The holiday season is full of high salt, high fat dishes, that applies girth and weight. Now, I’m not complaining, nor do I suggest you dispense with your favorite dishes. But if you are interested in adding something with minimal fat, but still packs a very tasty punch, try my curried turkey endive salad bites. They are delicious.
Lemon Garlic Green Beans
A simple side dish is all you need at times, and lemon garlic green beans is most certainly a simple side dish.
I’m a fan of mixing textures, so along with the lemon and garlic in these beans, I added some toasted almonds, totally makes this dish for me.
Zucchini Goat Cheese Salad
This zucchini goat cheese salad is a delightful work of art. Just curl the zucchini around your fingers, scatter red onion slices over the top and then sprinkle with goat cheese. Finally drench the salad with a slightly sweet dressing and garnish with watercress.
Purple Cauliflower Rice
Purple cauliflower rice is a really cool side dish. It’s a smart alternative to regular rice. One cup of white rice has 5.6 times more carbs than the same amount of cauliflower rice. Cauliflower rice is packed with vitamin C too, and purple cauliflower rice is really pretty!
Replacing regular rice with cauliflower rice is a great idea, especially for those with chronic diseases such as diabetes.
It has a great bite, much lighter than conventional rice and doesn’t leave you conked out on the sofa veering to the food coma zone.
Three cheers for purple cauliflower rice!
Asparagus Gruyere Tart
It’s Monday folks, and I have a wonderful meatless recipe for you today, asparagus Gruyere tart. This cheese and vegetable tart is super easy to create and it takes no time at all to cook. Once ready, all you will have to do is add a side salad and some wine or iced beverage, and you will have yourself a superb lunch.
Honey Mustard Pork Summer Salad
When I make a salad to be enjoyed as a main course, rather than an accompaniment to a meal, I like my salad to be hearty. I use vegetables that need much mastication, high on the chew-worthy scale. Which, of course, can take time to eat, but above all is really tasty. Today’s recipe, honey mustard pork summer salad, is just that.
