EdĀ and I Ā love salads, especially in the summer. It’s so easy to get into a rut, throwing together the same ingredients week after week. To help all of us in this regard, I’ve put together a month’s worth of salad recipes. Thanks to some of my favorite food bloggers for sharing their recipes. With 31 salad recipes, you’ll find several to add to your summer salad rotation. You could, in fact, have a different salad everyday ofĀ the month!
The recipes are divided into two broad categories, those that predominately feature vegetables orĀ fruit and those that are highlighting aĀ protein, starch, or grain. Enough chit-chat, have fun exploring these 31 salad recipes. Bon appetit or as we say in Poland, smacznego!

I love reading your comments about Poland and your travels there. I am a Polak from Toledo but now live in Tucson. Always looking forward to reading more of your blogs. And thank you for all of the recipes.

Hi Kathryn, or given your Polish roots, maybe I should call you Kasia! I’m glad you’ve enjoyed our Polish adventure. We certainly have! Thanks for your comment. I really appreciate it! <3
Norma
Sorry, maybe I’m mistaken, but isn’t the word “POLAK” as derogatory towards Poles, as the “N” word is toward blacks, in terms of insults ? Please let me know the etiquette regarding this word ? I was raised hearing “We don’t use words like that…it’s not a nice word.”

Hello Norma,
I’m not sure that this has to do salads, but yes, sadly it has taken on a negative connotation in the USA. In Poland, however, it still just means a Polish man, and I suspect it’s a word used with pride.
