About

The best salads include a large variety of textures and a balance of savory and sweet flavors. I like to combine cooked ingredients with raw and add fresh fruit for sweetness, dried fruit for something tart and chewy, and nuts or seeds for some extra crunch. Cheesy tamari-and-maple-roasted broccoli pairs with chunks of apple for the perfect balance of savory and sweet; raw celery, dried cherries, and almonds add a circus of textures; and a light, creamy, tangy dressing ties it all together.
