A Parragon Bookbuddy Review: The Salad Bar and a recipe for reduced-calorie potato salad.

There is nothing I find more tricky than putting together an interesting salad. It is not easy to come up with new, fresh, easy ideas.  All I have ever really though of when it comes to it is some mixed leaves, including rocket and spinach, some herb leaves such as coriander or basil, some tomatoes, cucumber and a few pine nuts. That is pretty much as adventurous as it gets. So, I was really pleased to see that included in the Parragon range is ‘The Salad Bar’.

Once my current juice detox is over, I want to move on to healthier eating, making sure that what I put in body – on the whole – is good, nutritious food, with the occasional treat. Much like I used to live when I was on my own and couldn’t really be bothered to cook! This book is perfect.

Included are recipes which will help boost energy with slow release ingredients, add more superfoods to my diet and eat more seasonal and natural foods. There are also health facts on the benefits of many of the ingredients and keep the salads interesting – not really something that is usually my forte! 

One of things I do love is a good potato salad. Even better when it is a recipe for a reduced calorie one!
