Meal-in-One Summer Salads


Meal-in-one salads are perfect for summer

I like to prep dinner early in the day, especially in summer. Salads that are a meal-in-one are perfect for this because, at dinnertime, all I have left to do is toss and add last-minute ingredients. We have our top four summer all-in-one salads that we hope you’ll love.
