Add sparkle to any table with this salad. Not only does it look beautiful, but it tastes divine too! Bulgar wheat is quick to cook and the perfect base for a fresh salad with green veggies and feta, adorned with shiny pomegranate rubies. A simple vinaigrette with apple, honey, and mint brings all the flavours together for this refreshing side dish. This is a recipe that will have everyone coming back for more!

Hummus (of hoemoes gespel en as ‘goemoes’ uitgespreek) is ’n bekende Griekse kekerertjie-‘patee’. Die veelsydige happie is heerlik om op soveel verskillende maniere te gebruik. Dis deesdae baie gewild en oral in supermarkte beskikbaar, maar min kan egter by ’n tuisgemaakte bakkie van dié gesonde lekkerte kersvashou.
This well-known, yet simple Middle Eastern chickpea condiment is super versatile and equally healthy – definitely more than just a dip for veggies. A good dollop of this oh-so-creamy, thick spread is divine on warm strips of pita, ciabatta or wholewheat toast. It’s typically combined with lamb or falafels in a pita or wrap, with fresh salad ingredients like cucumber, cabbage and tomato. What is your favourite way to enjoy hummus?

This salad is made for a crowd, just perfect to make at your next braai when you need to feed lots of tummies. Unlike a heavy mayonnaise-based coleslaw this slaw is light and refreshing! The Asian-inspired dressing with soya sauce, ginger and chilli pairs perfectly with the sweet pineapple and crunchy veggies.

Fresh fruit in a salad? Yes, please! Seasonal fruit like grapes is more versatile than just as a fruit salad or a snack. The natural sweetness of the fruit combines well with a protein, like chicken. Use fruit as a delicious and healthy ingredient in many creative ways like in this salad. The hint of spiciness in the dressing is so good with the grapes, broccoli and juicy chicken.
