Salad Recipes
Fresh, vibrant, and full of flavour — salads that are anything but boring.
Forget sad, wilted leaves on the side of a plate. The salads in our collection are bold, satisfying meals in their own right. Think crispy halloumi on a bed of roasted vegetables, zingy Asian-style slaws, grain bowls loaded with colour and texture, and fresh summer plates that make the most of seasonal produce. Whether you're after a light lunch or a substantial dinner, these salads deliver on every front.

Allergy-friendly freshness
Salads seem safe, but dressings often contain hidden allergens — egg in mayonnaise, nuts in pesto, dairy in creamy dressings. Every salad on Ella's Pantry comes with complete allergy labelling. Set up your allergy profile and the 'Recipes for Me' filter will show you only salads that are genuinely safe. You'll discover dressings and toppings that are just as delicious without the ingredients you need to avoid.
Assembly made simple
A great salad is all about the components coming together at the right moment. Our step-by-step instructions break down the prep clearly — what to roast, what to dress in advance, and what to add at the last minute for crunch. Built-in timers help with any roasting or toasting, and our hints and tips cover everything from making the perfect vinaigrette to keeping leaves crisp.
Light, balanced, and trackable
Salads are naturally one of the healthiest options on the menu, and our nutritional breakdowns let you see exactly what's in each serving. Whether you're eating lighter, tracking macros, or simply want more vegetables in your diet, you can browse by cook time to find quick options or search by ingredient to build around what you already have.

My go to Mexican lentil salad is such a crowd pleaser, and honestly, it couldn't be easier to throw together. This vibrant dish comes together in under 45 minutes and costs just a few dollars to make, which means you can feed a bunch of people without breaking the bank. Lentils are packed with protein and fiber, so you'll stay full way longer than with a regular salad. The fresh lime juice, cilantro, and crispy tortilla chips give it that authentic Mexican flavor that makes everyone ask for the recipe. Trust me, once you make this once, you'll be coming back to it again and again.
