Salad #35 – Roasted Parsnip and Carrot Salad

December 6, 2013 by danawyyc 1 Comment

Roasted Carrot and Parsnip Salad
I had never had parsnips until I was an adult. My mom didn’t like them, so she never made them. We’ve been getting a bunch in our vegetables boxes from Eagle Creek Farms as part of their Community Supported Agriculture program (CSA). Although I don’t have a negative feelings towards parsnips, I don’t really know what to do with them either. I used some of our parsnips in a Moroccan style stew but I still had a ton left over. I thought that perhaps I could make the rest into a salad and this is what I came up with. This would be a great salad for Christmas dinner as you can roast the vegetables ahead of time.

Salad #35 - Roasted Parsnip and Carrot Salad
 
Ingredients
  • Ingredients
  • 8-12 carrots and parsnips
  • 3-6 shallots
  • olive oil
  • salt and pepper
  • greens
  • Dressing Ingredients
  • 2 tbsp grainy mustard
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • salt and pepper
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 450F.
  2. Chop parsnips and carrots into bite sized pieces. Cut shallots in half or quarters if they are larger. Toss with oil and salt and pepper.
  3. Spread onto a baking sheet in a single layer. I like to line the baking sheet with parchment paper. Because it is awesome. And then the veggies won't stick to the pan.
  4. Cook for 35 minutes, turning the vegetables once or twice. Keep an eye on the shallots,  you may want to take them out early so they don't burn. I took mine out about half way through the cooking time.
  5. Meanwhile whisk up your dressing ingredients in a small bowl until well mixed.
  6. When the vegetables are tender, cooked through and a little bit golden, remove them from the oven and let cool.
  7. Toss the vegetables with the dressing. If you are going to serve the salad later, you can put them in the fridge at this point.
  8. Otherwise, toss the greens with a bit of dressing, and layer the vegetables on top of the greens on each plate.

Salad #33 – Mexican Street Corn Inspired Quinoa and Corn Salad

September 22, 2013 by danawyyc 6 Comments

Mexican Street Corn Inspired Quinoa and Corn Salad

I’ve been seeing recipes for Mexican street corn popping up on pinterest lately. I ended up with some extra roasted corn after making this salad so I decided to try to make a salad version. This recipe probably does not have much in common with the kind of corn you might actually get on the street, but it is super good nonetheless. Even my relatives who are not keen on spicy food liked this recipe although I did try to keep it pretty mild.

Deb – Nice side dish. Healthy and spicy.

Nicky (1.5 years) – liked the salad and didn’t mind the heat.

Salad #31 – Kale Salad with Grilled Corn

September 15, 2013 by danawyyc 1 Comment

I’ve always been a little intimidated to buy corn still in the husk. At the grocery store by my house, there is a huge garbage can by the corn for the discarded leaves that collect by people examining the corn. I had no idea what I should be looking for but it seemed pretty clear that I should be looking for something. I decided this summer to just bite the bullet and buy some corn. When I brought the corn home and started husking it became pretty obvious what I should have been looking for. To spare you from feeling like an idiot at the grocery store, here are some tips for picking corn at the grocery store.

How to Pick Corn at the Grocery Store

  1. Peel back the husk so you can see the kernels. You may end up losing a few leaves so you can do this which is fine. Some stores will even have a bin for you to discard them.
  2. Look at the kernels on the end. You want them to look plump and firm.
  3. Discard them if the kernels on the end are squashed and broken, or there is a lot of small undeveloped kernels. A few undeveloped kernels on the end is fine, but a lot of them means that the corn was picked before it was fully ripe. You’ll also want to look out for discoloration or mold indicating that the corn is past it’s prime.

Kale Salad with Grilled Corn

 

I decided to grill the corn for this salad. I’d never tried that before and wasn’t sure it was going to be worth the effort. It turned out to be amazing – I highly recommend giving it a try. Alternatively, you can roast it in the oven which will give similar results. Steaming, boiling or microwaving the corn will still make a great salad but it may lose a little of the awesomeness.

Salad #28 – Orzo Salad

September 6, 2013 by danawyyc Leave a Comment

My friend Erin recommended this salad to me, in her words she blogs about “recipes (that don’t kill my husband) and crocheting!” over at Mrs Brits. She raved about how good it was and after making it myself I would have to agree. I used frozen peas and frozen corn, but it would be great with garden peas, snow peas, snap peas or corn kernels cut from the cob.  The flavors are simple and will complement almost any meal. I love how it is so much lighter than your typical pasta salad.

Orzo Salad

Did They Eat It?

Deb – nice and light compared to a lot of pasta salads

Grandma Mary – I liked it, but not as well as the one with the beets. [review to come]

Richard – very good.

Bronwen – Delicious. Perfect starch complement to the steak.

Nicky (17 months) – Liked the veggies from the salad but left the orzo alone.

Geoff (my special needs brother) – Loved it. Asked for more. Yay!

Anne – Really nice change for the starch.

Dana – This is a nice simple salad, but don’t underestimate it. It’s easy to put together and switch out the ingredients to whatever you have on hand. The orzo works really well – it didn’t get mushy even with a couple of days in the fridge. Perfect to make for a crowd.

Salad #27 – Potato Salad with Cilantro Lime Vinaigrette

August 15, 2013 by danawyyc Leave a Comment

I’m going to be honest. I am not a fan of cilantro. I don’t hate it as much as I used to, but I still generally substitute parsley or something whenever a recipe calls for cilantro. I had heard that when cilantro is all minced up, it is more palatable (for people who don’t already like it) so I thought I would give it a try. Surprisingly, the dressing was really good. I even had a couple other cilantro skeptics try it and they liked it too.

Potato Salad with Cilantro Lime Vinaigrette

Ingredients

  • Cilantro Lime Vinaigrette (recipe below) 
  • Potatoes cut into bite sized cubes.

Directions

  1. Boil potatoes until cooked through.
  2. Drain the potato water and lay the cooked potatoes out on a tea towel to dry. If you rinse the potatoes or put the dressing on before the potatoes dry it makes it hard for the dressing to stick. It will be less of an issue if you are serving it immediately.
  3. Put the potatoes in a large bowl and pour the dressing over the potatoes. Mix well.

Salad #26 – Kale Salad with a Bacon Vinaigrette

August 15, 2013 by danawyyc 1 Comment

I was looking for some ideas for out of the ordinary dressings and my friend Heather (who writes a funny parenting and design blog over at Home to Heather) suggested a warm bacon dressing. This sounded like it would be perfect for my kale, one of the few things that I actually managed to grow in my garden this year.  I’m not sure whether this is what she had in mind, but it was delicious nonetheless. I ate this entire salad almost all by myself. It was even really good the next day.

Deb – lovely. one of the nicest ones I’ve had.

Nicky (17 months) – Loved munching on the kale leaves from the salad

Gordie (4.5 years) – Thought the bacon from the salad was okay but would be better without the dressing.

Dana – I thought this salad was great. I’m wasn’t sure if it would hold up the next day when I had pre-dressed it but it was still great though less crunchy.

Salad #24 – Fresh and Easy Pasta Salad

July 18, 2013 by danawyyc 1 Comment

Typical store bought pasta salads are loaded with mayonnaise or some other kind of creamy dressing and not much else. This one, on the other hand, is loaded with vegetables. Perfect for for a pot luck salad or as a main dish, you’ll feel great feeding this to your family.

My cousin made a salad similar to this one when I was at her house one day and I’ve been making it with a few variations ever since. Salsa is a perfect dressing for pasta salad and it couldn’t be easier. If you want it more gourmet, you can always make your own salsa but I prefer the ease of using pre-made salsa.

  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • 1 red pepper chopped
  • 1 orange pepper chopped
  • 1 yellow pepper chopped
  • ½ cucumber chopped
  • 1 jar prepared salsa (I like Tostitos Medium)
  • package of Canadian bacon, chopped
Instructions
  1. Cook pasta according to package instructions. Run under cold water to cool.
  2. Transfer pasta to a large bowl and add chopped veggies (peas can go in frozen) and the Canadian bacon.
  3. Pour salsa over the pasta mixture and mix well.
  4. I find leftovers benefit from some extra salsa before serving.

Variations

  •  swap out the vegetables for whatever you have on hand
  • swap out the Canadian bacon for another kind of protein – ham, imitation crab, chicken feta cheese or monterey jack cheese are all good options

Salad #22 – Grilled Vegetable Salad

June 20, 2013 by danawyyc 2 Comments

Grilled Vegetable Salad

Barbecue season is upon us, or at least there is no longer snow on the ground. On of the few days it hasn’t been raining, I threw together this roasted vegetable salad. Getting the timing right on the roasting can be a little tricky – I started out with a lot more asparagus than I ended up with. Aside from that, the salad is quite simple and very delicious. You can use any number of good roasting vegetables in addition or instead of the ones I used including carrots, eggplant, fennel or squash.

Grilled Vegetable Salad

Salad #22 - Grilled Vegetable Salad
 
Ingredients
  • Salad Ingredients
  • 3 peppers (different colors are pretty)
  • 1 zucchini
  • 1 yellow onion
  • handful of asparagus (more if you are prone to burning things)
  • olive oil
  • Dressing Ingredients
  • extra virgin olive oil
  • garlic (I used garlic powder but if you like more of a bite a couple grated garlic cloves would work too)
  • red wine vinegar (or sherry vinegar)
  • coarse salt
Instructions
  1. Snap the woody ends of the asparagus. Cut the onion in half across the middle. Cut the zucchini in half. Cover all the vegetables lightly in olive oil.
  2. Turn your grill on to medium heat and lay the vegetables on it.
  3. Your vegetables will be done in 5-20 minutes. My reference says that asparagus should be done in 10 minutes on high heat but most of it was burnt beyond saving after 5 so check to see if anything might need turning after a couple of minutes. After that check and turn your vegetables every 5 minutes. You want your vegetables to be tender but retain a little bite. Your peppers (or eggplant if you're using that) should be covered in char when they are done.
  4. Stick the peppers (and eggplant) in a plastic bag for 5 minutes and then peel off the skin.
  5. Slice all the vegetables into bite sized strips or chunks.
  6. Drizzle with extra virgin olive oil, red wine vinegar, garlic and salt.

Did They Eat It?

Gordie (4 year old): refused to try it.

Richard: Quite enjoyed that even though I had just finished a big bowl of ice cream.

Bronwen: Great. Well grilled – the vegetables retained their texture and flavor but were still very soft.

Anne: Delicious. Really really good. I like the flavor of barbecue vegetables. I even ate the onions even though I usually don’t.

Stephen: Really tasty.

Dana: I can’t wait to experiment with different kinds of vegetables. I will definitely be making this again.

Salad #18 – Raw Asparagus, Tomato and Basil Salad with a Grainy Mustard Dressing

May 27, 2013 by danawyyc Leave a Comment

I made this salad for our BBQ on mother’s day, along with my Broccoli, Grape and Bacon Salad and my Southwestern Bean Salad. My mother-in-law was really taken with the raw asparagus that I had used in my Green Chopped Salad so I wanted to try another salad that used it that I could send home for her since we wasn’t able to make it to the BBQ. I haven’t heard what she thought yet, but it was a surprise favorite of my father-in-law.  It’s also a really pretty looking salad, and spring is a great time for asparagus and basil. The basil is pretty prominent in this salad, so you can dial it back or try a different herb if you aren’t a huge fan – cilantro would be an interesting alternative.

  3. Add the dressing to the salad ingredients in a large bowl. Start with about half the dressing. You want the vegetables to be well covered but not sopping.

Variations

  • Add chopped avocado or a cheese like fresh mozzarella, feta or Gorgonzola.
  • Try dijon mustard instead of grainy mustard
  • Try white wine vinegar instead of lemon juice

Deb: Way better when I knew it was basil instead of cilantro.

Richard: Really liked it.

Erik: I enjoyed it. I’m not used to eating raw asparagus and it is okay.

Dana: I found it almost got better the more I ate it. I’d make this one again for sure.

Salad #17 – Raw Kale and Brussels Sprouts Slaw with Bacon

May 23, 2013 by danawyyc Leave a Comment

My friends all seem to be making Julie Van Rosendaal’s Kale and Brussels Sprouts Salad and giving it rave reviews. I have to say, I was a little skeptical about a salad with raw kale and Brussels Sprouts. I’m not a huge fan of raw broccoli either. But the dressing softens some of the harshness that the raw greens might otherwise have. I had it as a side dish the first night and then topped it with a runny egg the next two days for lunch. It turns out that my friends were right. The salad is awesome.
