{This week, post by: Jessica}

Stick with your health and fitness goals by enhancing your diet. These 7 delicious and healthful salads are recipes filled with flavor that can boost your health.

When you set health and fitness goals, what you eat is a key consideration. Delicious and healthful salad recipes are an easy way to boost your veggie intake and boost your health. I have 7 delicious and healthful salad recipes here for you. Let’s achieve those goals to feel better and be healthier!

I love salad! It took me a few years to get there, but now salads show up almost daily in my lunch and dinner routines. I love them because they are versatile and easy to customize. They can be made to feed just one person or serve a whole crowd. Many healthy salad recipes can even be made ahead of time.

These 7 delicious and healthful salad recipes will keep your health and weight management goals in reach.

Quinoa Avocado Spinach Salad


Here are a few things to keep in mind before you chow down on your salads:

1.Be mindful of your toppings.

Lettuce, spinach, and kale are low in calories, but the goodies you put on top of them are not. Feel free to load up on the veggies, and add nuts, cheese, dried fruits and meats in reasonable portions.

When choosing a dressing, the healthier choices are those made with olive oil. Homemade dressings are usually better for you too because they do not contain the extra preservatives or sodium you find in those on store shelves.

2. Dip instead of drench.

There are times when nothing but a nice creamy ranch dressing will do. Instead of pouring the dressing all over your plate, try serving the dressing on the side or dipping your fork into it and then into your salad.

You might be surprised how little dressing you actually end up eating. This will save you a ton of calories!

3. Get creative with the base of your salad.

Chopped up cabbage or Brussels sprouts are a great alternative to lettuce and spinach.

Cooked quinoa can be transformed using a variety of toppings. Consider adding one of these great options to your dinner routine.

Meatless Mondays anyone?
