Top 5 Salad Recipes of 2011 – Oh She Glows (2024)

Your protein goddess bowl has become a favorite. I made it this week to compensate for all of the extra holiday treats.
Many thanks to you – I have been trying to eat healthier this year and your blog has really helped me.

I’d love it if you did a fruit salad recipe that would be good for winter! I find I don’t consume as many fresh fruits in the winter, which isn’t ideal.

Salad has never looked so scrumptious!

Just made the detox salad!! It really is delicious! I don’t think I’ll put 1/2t of salt in next time…I’m finding it a little bit too much!

I actually have it on my meal plan this week to make the red quinoa and black bean salad.

I wanna try one by one!!! And I will!
Great job with these ;)

Thanks Angela! This post could not have come at a better time!!! It’s definitely salad season in Sydney as the weather begins to heat up. Detox salad is definitely necessary after all the holiday festivities. The the lightened up protein power goddess bowl is on my ‘to make for lunch list this week’. Can’t wait :)

All of them are perfect main meal salads, and all of them look very yummy! Red Quinoa and Black Bean one looks especially tempting!

YOu read my mind! We have just finished a big salad for dinner tonight!

I love all the salads. Thank you Angela for showing different foods and different ways to eating! I now love wheatberries and quinoa.

I have tried each and every one of these salads and my all time favorite was the back on track. My gosh, it’s so deliciously good! Thanks for posting these, Angela :)

They all look so good!! I am going to be trying each one very soon!! But…. I cannot stand Kale!! : ( What could be substituted in your opinion??

I love making your detox salad, except I actually use the broccoli and cauliflower stems and save the florets for different recipes! It is a great way to use the stalks and it’s super crunchy. I chop them up small. Thanks for sharing, this is definitely one of my go to salads :-)

I love your salads, they are also my favorite !
Happy holidays !!

Your photo with all your chopped veggies is delish :-)

My friend made the Kale Salad for a dinner party last night. It tastes wonderful, and the tahini lemon dressing is fantastic. Had to have the recipe! Thanks!

I read the ingredients for your kale salad and it looks and sounds delish but…how did you manage 20 kale plants in your garden without them going to seed or to waste? Even with just the 2 of you at home, did you not find yourself buried in kale? I’d love to plant a lot of veggies this coming year, but I’m concerned that I’m going to have them all ripen at once, and have an overabundance that would go to waste.

The protein power goddess bowl is a definite winner in our house. My husband asks for it all the time!

So delicious! I’ve been reading your blog for a while now and the salads have compelled me to comment! :-) Thanks for this and all of your recipes. Happy New Year!

these=GREATNESS! Thanks Ang. :)

where, oh where, can i find speltberries?? i’m in toronto, by the way.
i made the Goddess Bowl yesterday with brown rice instead of the speltberries, and it was so amazing, but i have a feeling it can be even better because speltberries are so tasty : )

I’m surprised my favorite didn’t make the list! I’ve been trying to search for it recentlty with little success. It was a huuuge salad you recreated from a vegan restaurant you visited this year, if I’m not mistaken. Involved avacados, bean sprouts, carrots, possibly cabbage, possibly with tahini dressing— was a very colorful salad and kept me so full. Can you help me find this salad in your archives, pretty please :)

I just tried your weekend glow salad. I never would have thought I would enjoy raw kale. who knew? I’m glad I tried the lemon-tahini dressing before I added it the salad, I wasn’t a fan. Instead, I tossed the salad with olive oil, lemon juice and a little salt. It was very good. Thanks for inspiring me to try kale.

The kale and goddess salads are two of my favorite lunch staples. That lemon-tahini dressing? The stuff of dreams!

BBQ chilli looks great. Yummy!

I made the Back On Track salad (with black beans instead of navy, and red quinoa instead of wheatberries, thanks to some allergies)… You wouldn’t believe how fast my sisters ate it up! We are certainly back on track! Thanks!

I just made the Protein Goddess bowl – yummy! Random question…is it meant to be eaten hot or cold? I just reheated my left overs, but wasn’t sure if it’s meant to be eaten cold like a salad? Thanks!

Back on Track salad is just about the best salad EVER. I can not wait for the next “food day” at work to share this amazing salad. I am way excited for lunch this week.

My roommate has made your Red Quinoa and Black Bean Salad several times and it’s awesome!

My favorite salad right now is with Kale, apple slices, sunflower seeds, and the light poppyseed/vinegar based slaw dressing! Yummo!!!

These salads make me happy!

Funny you said, “back on track” because today is the 138th running of the Kentucky Derby and everyone here in Louisville is at our favorite track, Churchill Downs!!
Thanks for salad recipes!!!

Hi Angela! This is my first comment, but I have been following your blog for about 3 years now. I just wanted to say how much I love your recipes and posts. I was a vegetarian for about ten years, and now allow myself fish and an occasional turkey sandwich–but I mostly eat meat free. My husband is a HUGE carnivore, and even he loves your recipes! Thanks and keep doing what you’re doing:).
