Looking for delicious vegan salad recipes? You’re in the right place!

This collection includes main course salads like my napa and kale slaw or this vegan Nicoise-inspired salad. Plus, flavourful salads with loads of greens like my dill pickle salad and my kale and Brussels sprouts Caesar slaw. There are also plenty of salads without lettuce, like my sweet potato sunshine salad and my broccoli and pepperoncini pasta salad.
