Leafy Green Salads with Meat
I love salad. I think I could eat it everyday. For a while, I did. But I wasn’t getting enough protein. I started making salads with meat. There are so many things that can be put into salad to make it amazing. Salads are a great way to get the veggies we need in our diets. Adding some meat or seafood makes it more appealing to more people. That makes people want to eat it, and with it the added vegetables.
Salads with Seafood
Adding meat is one way to get people to eat more salad, but adding seafood lets everyone feel like they are having a decadent and rich dinner except it is good for you. Seafood salads make a great dinner and is easy to make.

Blackened fish is one of my favorite ways this mama loves to eat fish, AND the sweet and savory combination from My Gluten-Free Kitchen‘s huckleberry vinaigrette is like a bite of perfection that you must try! If you don’t have huckleberry where you live, substitute a mandarin or blueberry vinaigrette instead. Either will give your blackened salmon salad a sweet flavor that will bring out the savory flavors of your fish. Learn how to make this recipe for yourself—–>HERE.

I feel like we just went on a little trip around the world, from Italy, to Alaska, and now we’re heading down to South America! If you are a fajita lover, this salad will quickly find it’s place in your monthly dinner menu! Be sure you skip the directions on the seasoning packet itself and rub fajita seasoning directly onto the chicken instead. When you do this, it gives your chicken a double dose of flavor, so the true fajita flavor pops in your mouth with every bite of chicken you taste. You’ll love it so much you might want to go ahead and double your chicken serving! Grab the recipe from I Heart Naptime—–>HERE.
