This has become my go-to salad for weeks now. As per usual with me, it’s quite simple.

Cucumber, Mango, Chicken, & Mint
This very simple salad doesn’t need much of a recipe: it’s just cooked chicken, cucumber, mango, and mint.
Much like other salads I’ve posted recently, I never found it needed a dressing (which is good, since it’s hard to do many dressings without vinegar, which I can’t have right now). Between the mango and the mint, there’s a lot of flavor in every bite.
It really does need fresh mint and fresh mango to make it work.
This salad keeps for several days.
Quarantine Salad
These days, I’m not the only one hesitating to make regular grocery runs. Yet I run out of ‘fresh’ food quickly, and I love salads!
So I came up with this salad, made from 4 cans. It’s delicious, and if you can find low or no sodium veggies, it’s also healthy.

My husband and several of our friends have enjoyed this salad, as have I! It’s pretty easy to make, and totally delicious.
While my toddler (almost 3) doesn’t go in much for salads, she enjoyed the pieces of this separated out on her plate – she had some of the goat cheese, cranberries, kale, and chicken.
Cabbage, Feta, Bell Pepper, and Green Onion Salad
Inspired by this Cabbage and Feta Salad, I’ve created my own go-to, easy, delicious salad! 
This has become something of a staple for me – I’ll make it for weeks and weeks in a row, sometimes. It’s easy to make, especially if you buy items pre-cut. It’s delicious. It’s (relatively) healthy, and filling if you eat enough of it. I love taking a large container of it into work. It keeps well for about 4-5 days, depending on the cheese.

Delicious Mediterranean-Inspired Salad
This salad was inspired by a wonderful Mediterranean sandwich at Potbelly. It does take a bit of time to make, with the roasting part, but it is pretty simple to make. I love bringing it to work for a filling lunch.
After making this for many weeks in a row, I decided I needed to write the recipe down before I forget it.
Radish and Cucumber Salad
Another “trying to figure out what do with Fresh Fork food” post! I’m not a very big fan of radishes, but I figured I should find something to do with them. We had a cucumber left over from last week as well, so this recipe seemed perfect.
This is a slightly adapted version of Epicurious’ Cucumber and Radish Salad Recipe. As with most everything I make, I don’t see the need for all of that olive oil which the original recipe calls for. It also calls for more cucumbers than I had available.
Despite not liking radishes on their own at all, I really enjoyed this combination of flavors.
Cabbage and Black Bean Salad
The Fresh Fork Market season has started! That means we’re getting all sorts of delicious, fresh vegetables and cheeses… which also means we have to figure out what to do with them.
An entire cabbage, shredded, is too much for just coleslaw, so I went looking for another dish to make. I came across this recipe for Crispy Black Bean Tacos with Feta Cheese from Epicurious. Since we also had black beans and green onions from Fresh Fork, it seemed like a no-brainer.
I went for a salad rather than a taco since salads are way easier to eat at work. I’m very pleased with how it turned out – not only delicious, but also very filling!
Baa Taco Salad & Chicken Taco Salad
I’ve made two delicious taco salads recently. They were really so different that I should refer to them as two different salads – a baa taco salad (because I had lamb in it – get it?), and a chicken taco salad. But they were similar enough that I think one post will do.

Apple, Carrot, and Avocado Salad with Curry Greek Yogurt Dressing and dried Cranberries
Another delicious and simple salad!
The title really says it all. It’s a great combo of crunchy and smooth, sweet and savory.
