Salalds are great for the summer, aren’t they? What about a refreshing cold salad?
I was thinking of making yet another summer cooler today because it’s summer and hot. But then I had a change of mind because my almost 9 month old was sleeping. I didn’t want to wake him up with the roaring blender! Instead I made this gorgeous Watermelon Salad with cucumber and feta cheese.
It’s sweet, it’s crunchy, it’s cold – in all it is simply an awesome salad. The hint of salt from the feta cheese and the beautiful honey and lime dressing adds all the necessary zing.
I am sure you will like this combination this summer! It is so soothing for the eyes!

Hey let me know if you liking the clean eating theme and the clean recipes! Would love to hear from you.
It is super-hot outside and there’s nothing better than the cool cucumber slices to bring some relief. The Tangy Cucumber and Lettuce Salad Bowl is the right accompaniment in every meal this summer.
The sight of it is so refreshing and cooling to the eyes that you feel happy. I am eating clean this entire April because a. it’s my theme for the month b. I don’t feel like eating anything spicy or sweet or anything. If I could simply survive on juices and water I would probably do that now!
We did have some rain yesterday which was a big relief. Find out my Tangy Cucumber and Lettuce Salad Bowl which is perfectly summer ready!
The pear and lettuce salad is the fresh and crunchy twist to the otherwise boring salad bowl. It’s drizzled with tangy balsamic vinegar and topped with toasted walnuts for the added crunch. It’s ready under 5 minutes.
I am loving salads these days. The Pear and Lettuce Salad is just the one I needed this afternoon to beat the heat and get in some portion of healthy food. It is even better with the toasted walnuts.
Fresh salads are super good for your body and they look so appetizing. The Lettuce, Grilled Tomato and Chicken Salad is colorful, fresh and super yum. I made this for my breakfast today and made a healthy start to the day!
This #AtoZChallenge is making sure I am eating right this month.
