This was brilliant! And also you read my mind, I have been buying so many greens to prepare salads so when I saw you wrote about this it felt like a sign. Would you consider a series on how to make the perfect salad? Like which flavors to incorporate and how to balance crunch/acidity/texture/etc?
How wonderful, Sri! So glad this is giving you an idea for making something with ingredients you are already buying (this is essentially what motivates my Substack!).
I like your idea of a series! I might start compiling some posts as I create and eat more salads this spring and summer. One odd thing about me though is that I'm not a big salad dressing person. I often enjoy my salads dry or dressed with just lemon and salt. But let's see how it goes! Thank you for this idea.
I am so glad to have provided some inspo and an idea! That's the main reason why I write my food stories. Thank you for sharing this, you've made my day! :)
I've been surprised at how well this keeps in the fridge so I can enjoy it for several servings for a day or two. And it's customizable for whatever you've got. The other day I added some broccoli and edamame to it. So good! I am now experimenting with a dressing of Greek Yogurt + Ranch Seasoning to see if I like that version.
I too have found chopped salads a good meal. It's filling and heathy
Agree, they are so easy and quite filling. I love the crunchy crunchy bites.

Thank you for this inspo! I've been getting so fatigued with my usual workday lunches and this kind of chopped salad sounds delightful.
