5 fresh sides for your Memorial Day weekend ☀️
|
Hi Reader, While it's been a weirdly cold spring in the Midwest, I'm so ready for lake days, summer, long holiday weekends, and all the pasta salads and fresh food that comes with it! Whether you're home or away for Memorial Day weekend, here are a few fresh and seasonal side dish recipes to go alongside whatever you're cooking. 1. Pesto Pasta Salad with ChickenThis recipe is incredibly simple and uses a lot of pantry staples for flavor. For added crunch and freshness, I love adding spinach or arugula right before serving.
2. Creamy Cucumber SaladA classic for a reason! Easy to make, goes with everything, super refreshing.
3. Snap Pea & Edamame SaladFresh, flavorful, and stays crunchy in the fridge!
4. Everyday Leafy Green SaladUse up those spring greens and radishes with a simple, fluffy green salad with lemon vinaigrette. A side that can go with anything!
5. Shrimp Mango SaladZesty and scoop-able, so get out those tortilla chips! We rarely have leftovers with this one.
Enjoy! 💛 Tera

I was developing my herby chicken meatballs recipe and my creamy cucumber salad, so I had both leftovers in the fridge. One day I decided to combine them with greens, feta,...
