Fruit and Vegetable Salad Recipes

The range of suitable ingredients is vast - from lentils to cauliflower and from bell peppers to bean sprouts - and they can be combined in an almost endless variety of ways, especially if you include fruit, nuts, cheese or eggs too. Salad vegetables don't have to be raw. Some are best blanched or wilted and then cooled before the salad is assembled, while other benefit from more thorough cooking.

Besides excellent first courses, there are recipes for delicious side dishes and great main course salads for family lunches and informal entertaining. You may even be encouraged to mix and match different dishes for a simple but tempting salad treat.
