This salad features all the classic niçoise ingredients and flavors, with a bright and fresh lemony dressing, and uses fresh seared tuna in place of canned. The tuna will be rare in the center. Add an additional 2 to 3 minutes per side for more doneness.

Brussels Sprouts Salad with Crunchy Chickpeas

Mason Jar Power Salad with Chickpeas & Tuna
This power salad will keep you fueled for hours, thanks to 26 grams of protein and 8 grams of fiber. Tossing the dressing and kale, and then letting them stand in the jar, softens the kale enough so you don’t need to massage or cook it to make it tender.

This delicious and healthy lentil salad comes together in just 30 minutes and makes a wonderful hot-weather meal. Serve with whole-wheat pitas, if desired.
Copycat Panera Green Goddess Cobb Salad
William Dickey
This copycat Panera Green Goddess Cobb Salad is easy to make at home. Adding a simple Dijon mixture to the chicken gives it a boost of flavor that works well with the green goddess dressing. The dressing would also work well as a dip or spread, or over potato or pasta salad.
Air-Fryer Tempura Artichoke Salad with Lemon-Dill Dressing
Sneak more vegetables into your salad with these lightly battered artichoke “croutons.” Use a vegetable peeler to shave long ribbons from asparagus stalks.
Tuna & Olive Spinach Salad
This tuna salad recipe gets an upgrade with olives, feta and a tahini dressing. Served over baby spinach, this is the perfect easy and light lunch or dinner salad.
Kale & Strawberry Salad
In this kale and strawberry salad, apple-cider vinegar and mustard flavor the dressing while fresh strawberries offer a touch of sweetness. Creamy herbed goat cheese completes this healthy salad that’s perfect for lunch or dinner.
Cauliflower, Quinoa & Arugula Salad
Roasted cauliflower shines in this veggie-packed dinner salad. We love the peppery taste of baby arugula, but any tender green will work well here. We let the cauliflower cool a bit before we add it to the salad. It’s delicious warm, but you could roast it a few hours in advance and refrigerate it until you’re ready to assemble the salad to speed things up.
