This light yet hearty brunch salad filled with greens, potatoes, and spring salmon is bound together by a creamy, bright dressing.
Find sumac in the spice aisle or international aisle of your grocery store, at bulk food stores, at specialty food shops, and online. It has a sour zing that makes this dish pop.
Per serving:
Preheat oven to 425 F (220 C).
In steamer basket or in boiling water, steam or boil potatoes until tender when pierced with a knife but not falling apart, about 10 to 15 minutes. Drain and set aside to cool.
To large parchment-lined baking sheet, add salmon and season with 1/4 tsp (1 mL) salt. Roast for 8 to 12 minutes, until fish is still juicy but flakes easily. Remove any skin, and flake fish into large pieces.
Transfer potatoes to large mixing bowl, along with arugula.
To make dressing, in small bowl, whisk to combine yogurt, olive oil, lemon juice, sumac, Dijon, and garlic. Add enough dressing to potato and arugula mixture, and toss to combine. Save additional dressing for serving at the table.
Line 4 serving plates with lettuce leaves. Gently top with potato salad and add flakes of salmon when serving. Sprinkle with additional sumac and serve with any leftover dressing, if there is any.
This vegan take on classic shepherd’s pie is jam-packed with bold and rich flavours that will ensure no one will miss the meat. While a great source of fibre, lentils also contain the highest amount of folate out of all plant-based foods. Oven ready If you don’t have an ovenproof skillet, you’ll need to transfer cooked lentil filling to a baking dish before topping with mashed sweet potatoes and baking.
Cauliflower has been having a moment lately, and this salad proves exactly why. Tender caramelized cauliflower is crowned in a glorious sweet and savoury crumble that will ensure it a place on your table all month long. Of all tree nuts, pecans have the highest concentration of flavonoids, which offer beneficial anti-inflammatory effects, and they also protect your cells from oxidative damage. Crumble perfection This crumble topping is too good not to use it on other preparations. Sprinkle over a carrot ribbon salad to add some extra pizzazz, use as a glorious garnish on a soup or stew, or consider generously spooning over your next vegetable “steak” to add some delicious textural variation.
This gloriously comforting dish gets its creamy lusciousness from a can of white beans. Feel free to use whatever vegetables you have on hand instead of broccoli. Pass the pasta Instead of regular pasta, consider serving this sauce over zucchini noodles, carrot noodles, or cooked spaghetti squash.
This nut-free take on classic queso dip is everything you want and more. Paired with chips, crackers, or crudités, this creamy, zesty, smoky, and oh-so-satisfying dip is easy enough to whip up for a cozy snack or as an appetizer for company. Go nuts! If you’re okay to eat nuts, try substituting sunflower seeds with 1 cup (250 mL) raw cashews.
