The 15 Best Healthy Summer Salads

When it’s summer, I’m all about eating as much fresh produce as possible. The fruit. The veggies. The tomatoes. Oh, the tomatoes. I usually max out on them by fall but by January my body is craving in-season delicious tomatoes. Ahhh…summer.

I also tend to eat a lot better in the summer. It’s probably easier because everything is in season and tastes about 1000% better. It’s also hot and I want to eat lighter meals that fill me up. My go to lunch and sometimes go to dinner as well is a salad. And, if I don’t plan then I end up with the same old salad day after day. So, it got me thinking: why don’t I have a list of salads I can reach for every week? That’s when I got the idea for the 15 Best Healthy Summer Salads.

Now, you are going to see bacon in some of these recipes because…well, bacon. But, I fully believe that you can be healthy and eat bacon. Bacon can be Whole30 compliant, paleo, and keto–so many of the leading diet choices include bacon. (This post isn’t sponsored by the bacon commission. Promise!)

Back to these salads. They have chicken, tomatoes, strawberries, steak, whole grains and a bunch of summer veggies. And, they all look super tasty. I cannot wait to make my way through this list of healthy summer salads over the next couple of months!
