These are 6 of my favorite go-to light and healthy salads that are full of fresh veggies, delicious proteins and TONS of flavor!

With summer right around the corner, I’ve really been trying to plan out more healthy salad recipes to make each week to help keep myself on track as well as to have a good variety and mix things up so I’m not eating the same thing every day!  Luckily fresh produce is in high abundance this time of year so it’s certainly not hard to stock up on your favorite veggies which is why I love making salads.

Salads definitely don’t have to be boring either!  These light and healthy salads are a few of my favorite go-to’s that are full of fresh veggies, delicious proteins and TONS of flavor!  They are also super versatile and really easy to make all your own.  And with the weather finally warming up, there’s nothing like a delicious crisp salad to kick off spring!

This Roasted Chickpea and Kale Salad is drizzled with a deliciously creamy tahini dressing which tastes perfect with the crunchy chickpeas!  It’s hearty, healthy and full of so much flavor which is why it’s one of my favorite go-to salads!
