The Complete Salad Cookbook: A Fresh Guide to 200+ Vibrant Dishes Using Greens, Vegetables, Grains, Proteins, and More (The Complete ATK Cookbook Series) Paperback – April 27, 2021

I preordered this book prior to its release, when it had no reviews for obvious reasons. But I own several ATK books and I love them all.This one in particular, is very helpful, as it breaks down the “anatomy” of a salad in a simple way and it really teaches you to invent a salad from scratch, beyond the recipes on the book; by adding a foundation (ie. greens), a structure (meats, fruits), a detail (nuts, croutons) , and a facade (deessing). The book has a good balance of gorgeous images and structured text. Also, it is cleverly organized, and it has guides on flavors and texture combinations that work well. Furthermore, it goes into how to prepare crunchy add-ons like crispy chickpeas, how to make salad dressings, how to cut/prepare your veggies and meats -it even shows how to care for your wooden salad bowl.I bought this book after hours of searching for a good salad book with enough variety and easy to follow for beginners. My husband has difficulties cooking, he was raised in a traditional family where he never had to enter the kitchen other than for eating. I was looking for a recipe book to incorporate more veggies in our diet, but that he could follow while also learning some cooking tricks. This one exceeded my expectations, and I had high expectations! We have only had this for a few days, and my husband has already made several delicious and colorful salads without any help.As far as I know, we found the best salad recipe book! Get this book if you want to start eating healthier, with variety, and learn a few tricks on the way. If you rather continue eating just lettuce and tomatoes then pass on this one.

This is absolutely a great cookbook. Thank you.Amazon you helped me find a wonderful single cookbook about so many different types of salad. I have gotten tired of the same old thing, now I can try new ingredients, flavors and textures to create salad to go with different proteins, carbohydrates, etc. Your online site allowed me to look inside this book, so I could rate the quality of the product.

Love salad? This is for you. Got one copy for my brother and another for my husband, both of whom love a good salad and a variety to choose from. No boredom here. 😉

The recipes look interesting. Good volume of ideas! Font is too small but pictures are lovely. The only issue I have is that the book arrived with sticky food residue all over the front and back and also on a few pages. Instead of returning, I cleaned it with a damp cloth but I really should have gotten credited for receiving a used book when I purchased a new book.

"The Complete Salad Cookbook" is truly a culinary gem, offering an amazing array of salad recipes that not only delight the taste buds but also come with exceptionally easy-to-follow instructions. The book's design is inspiring, elevating the entire cooking experience. From vibrant visuals to creative layout, the design enhances the overall appeal of the cookbook. Each recipe is a flavorful journey with clear steps that make preparing salads a breeze for both novice and seasoned cooks. Whether you're a health enthusiast or a food lover seeking fresh, delicious ideas, this cookbook is a must-have. Its winning combination of user-friendly instructions and visually appealing design transforms the act of creating salads into a delightful and rewarding culinary adventure.

As a noom participant I was looking for some better recipes that will help with my change over to a healthier eating. I love salads but get bored very easily if there is too much repetition. Anyways, this book came highly recommended and the recipes within were realistic and not too far out there. I have made many recipes in the book already and my wife is thrilled with them as am I. The pear, fennel and steak with an apple cider-sage vinaigrette is to die for. The book does reference back to earlier recipes regarding dressings, but the lovely thing is the recipes are a base and the most have variations (which are what these later recipes are referring back to). I bought no less than 11 cookbooks during prime day and this one topped them all. Cannot stress how fun and fresh this book is for the average home cook. Easy to follow recipes, realistic ingredients that are easy to find and last but not least, trust the process, you won't be disappointed.

Just okay... instructional is good but too many recipes that are not for us.

This is after our local library had a cookbook club, and this book was included.. after tapping a whole bunch of pages of the book that I borrowed from the library, I figured to look up the price online and go figure it became a buy one get one deal I’m about two.And many great recipes in this great coffee table book that not several people have picked up when they came over and leafed through it.
